Nothing says Merry Christmas like ripping off businesses during the holidays 😂

Come on dude, you own a business, you must be rich. Suck it up and take it.

this is sarcastic, but sometimes i feel that is how people feel or think.

Update - PayPal sided with the consumer and their bank. We got taken for $201 ($15 chargeback fee included) for a $93 item that was already cancelled and refunded.

It's not earth shattering. I spent far too much time on it and law enforcement probably won't care much about a petty theft charge.

Safe to say PayPal is no longer an available payment method on our website. In almost 50,000 orders...I have never lost a charge back that was clear and obvious fraud.

I feel like I'm being petty, but rewarding a thief really aggravates the shit out of me.

That really sucks. You're the second business ive heard of getting scammed via PayPal. I bet it happens alot more than what we hear about and for big companies I bet it happens more often than they realize. Thieves and dishonest people suck.

Starting another that people pay me to send dog shit to people.

Let me know when that comes online. I will give you a lot of business. How much can you send at a time? Are we talking a small box full or like maybe garbage cans full or more. And can the packages be made to disinigrate right after delivery?

That's infuriating man. If it were me I'd at least try to get some criminal fraud charges going because I just can't let stuff like this go. Intentional fraud and theft drives me crazy and these POS's rely on it not being worth chasing them down. It'd be fun to start a private website to exchange their names and addresses.

People all over the world in general are just pieces of shit.

Best to avoid people, it works for me

I'm still contemplating it. My brain is telling me to not waste my time, but my soul wants justice. haha

unless the theft is over $1000 no police agency is going to care one bit. even when it is over $1000 they don't really care. Heck i even gave them the name of the thief. long story that occured a few years back.

TandK unless you have an office lady that is just going to not give up, you will spend bucuu amount of time on a fairly small loss. any loss sucks, but the time value of money tells me to move on, on something this size.

Our property backs up to what use to be a Christmas tree farm. We would go over and pick out a live tree then pick it up closer to Christmas, we paid for ours. They had a lot of trees stolen every year. Nothing says Christmas like staring at a tree you sold. I'm sure the same could be said for the presents under the tree.

What i did a few years back on a bad check the guy was not going to pay was this:

I called and let him know that i did press charges. Even though i did not. So the next time he gets pulled over he will have this in the back of his mind and probably freak out alittle bit. or i hoped that is what would happen.

That's exactly why these punks keep doing it..

I ship my weeds/pollinators LTL, so the options are limitless....


With the wildflower stuff I can say open for maximum freshness
