Ripped Off!!

Someone in Sweden bought a set of dirt wheels from me and used a stolen credit card to pay for them. I will end up eating the cost of the wheels,shipping and , of course, lose face with my card processing company. I will not mention any names,but, if you live in Sweden and see a guy riding a WR250 X with SM Pro dirt wheels please let me know.
Thanks,
Forrest

I can help you with posts in Swedish forums if you want to.

That would be great! I have sold to people in Sweden before and they have become great customers. I guess there is always that chance.
Thanks,
Forrest

When did this happen ? And do you have a company ? Maybe you can give me the details on pm.

I suppose this all was revealed well after the goods had been delivered and claimed...

Being one of the mods here, if the person who purchased them is a member here, or if it was through an advertisement you made here, then I would like to know all the details. Including whatever names were used.

Thanks

Sorry to hear that, Forrest. International cards are tricky because even though you can use a number of methods to attempt to verify their information, at the end of the day, we're entirely responsible for fraud. We had a case where we contacted our processor, called the bank, collected info from the customer, and still got stuck paying for a fraud order. It's a huge risk when there just isn't any support for the vendor after the fact. We've all been there, but I feel for ya. Keep your chin up and know you're not the only one!
