Peinlicher Pimmelprimat Jonas Thunecke 🐵🐒😵💫🤪 (@beastiebearpig) reported@klose_alfred @tc_xcx @tc_xcx do NOT interact with this account! This dude is a scammer. he told me he'd spoil me and then he wanted by login data of my bank account, and as I refused to do that, he told me he can send money via paypal but I'd have to send him 50€ first.

Merry Poppins (@MerryPoppins56) reported@amazon Why do you allow companies to use a Shipping Company that is known for Scamming Associations? Jcex❓Effectively tracking JCEX shipments is generally not possible, as many Redditors report JCEX tracking to be unreliable and often associated with scams. The consensus among users is that JCEX is frequently used by fraudulent sellers, leading to fake tracking updates, packages marked as delivered but never received, and significant difficulty in getting accurate information or resolving issues. Common Issues with JCEX Tracking •False Delivery Notifications: Many users report that their JCEX tracking updates show the package as "delivered" when it has not arrived, or even shows delivery to a completely different location. "Same thing happened to me, it claimed it was delivered but it never arrived it’s a total scam ask for a refund" . •Irregular and Suspicious Updates: Tracking information often appears to be fabricated, with updates occurring at unusual intervals (e.g., every three days) or showing identical timestamps for different packages supposedly going to different locations. "And why the tracking updates are so weird on every 3 days?" . •Lack of Detailed Information: The tracking often provides minimal useful information, making it impossible to determine the package's actual whereabouts or the local carrier responsible for final delivery. "no local forwarding number there is absolutely no information i cant even see who has my package" . Difficulty in Resolving Issues •Unresponsive Customer Service: Redditors frequently mention that JCEX is difficult or impossible to contact directly for support. "I also tried calling their contact number but the number isn’t registered or working." . •Seller Involvement in Scams: Many instances suggest that sellers intentionally use JCEX with fraudulent intentions, relying on the unreliable tracking to string buyers along until buyer protection periods expire. "JCEX is currently being used by scammers, a seller (scammer) asked for more money to "release" this package that shows as delivered but of course was never delivered" . •Reliance on Marketplace Refunds: The most common resolution for unreceived items shipped via JCEX is to seek a refund from the marketplace (e.g., eBay, Amazon, Walmart) where the purchase was made. "I never got it but I was able to get my money back from eBay because I also used PayPal to pay for my order" . Recommendations for Buyers •Exercise Extreme Caution: Be very wary of purchases that indicate shipping via JCEX, especially from unfamiliar or newly established sellers. "Use extreme cautious with JCEX tracking via online marketplace merchants" . •Monitor Buyer Protection Timelines: If a purchase is shipped via JCEX, keep a close eye on the refund and return policies of the marketplace to ensure you can file a claim if the package doesn't arrive. "I contacted eBay asking them to extend the product guarantee based on what the seller had said, eBay denied me. I then appealed and got my refund, as the eBay rep said in their message that it does show as delivered and that they could see it was still in transit." . •Consider Alternative Shipping: If possible, choose sellers who use reputable shipping carriers with transparent and reliable tracking. "If it is JCEX it is fraud." .

6ɪx✦ (@ok6ixx) reportedmy grandma has been lying about not knowing how to use her phone for THREE YEARS. every time we visited she'd hand it to me like a helpless baby and say "sweetheart i don't understand this thing." i'd fix whatever and feel like a good grandson. last month my cousin caught her on a facebook live selling handmade quilts to 847 people with ring lighting and a PayPal link in the comments. she has a whole persona. her name is "Grandma Betty Stitches" and she has more followers than me. she looked at my cousin and said "don't tell the boys, they like feeling useful."

Vermilion | VGen (@QAVermilion) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal Wa. (File a counter issue, show all proof of delivery and that they use the VGen service. If they still side with the scammer, do check the law in your country and basically threaten them, they should revert back the funds to you.)

Creative Deduction (@CreativeDeduct) reportedElon Musk didn’t get rich by accident, by luck or by fraud. He got rich through entrepreneurship and ingenuity, and by taking enormous risks. The picture is Musk staring at the wreckage of another exploded Falcon 1 rocket, the third to fail on launch. In 2008, Musk was borrowing money from friends to pay his rent, going through a divorce, SpaceX was running out of cash, and to add to the misery, Tesla was at risk of missing payroll and going bankrupt. Down to his last $40 million of the $180 million he made from selling PayPal, Musk decided on one last roll of the dice and poured his remaining capital into a fourth launch on September 28, 2008. This time it worked. The rocket successfully reached orbit. Weeks later, SpaceX was awarded a $1.6 billion contract from NASA. A few months later, Tesla secured crucial investment to commence production of the original Tesla Roadster. "I gave both SpaceX and Tesla a probability of less than 10% likely to succeed," Musk later said. Musk could have taken a salaried job and never pursued entrepreneurship. He could have pocketed his PayPal millions and sat on a beach for the rest of his life. Instead, he risked it all and it paid off in a spectacular way, not just for him. His groundbreaking companies have given consumers new and better products and created 1000s of well-paid jobs. SpaceX alone has made more than 4,000 former and current employees Dollar millionaires. It also made Musk the world’s first Dollar trillionaire. His detractors tell you his wealth is undeserved. The truth is that when exceptional individuals like Musk run risks that may seem unacceptable to most of us, society progresses and we all gain. Instead of chastising success, we should take inspiration from people like Elon Musk. Next time you think of giving up, remember this picture.

JoyceMarg (@yougointogitmo) reported@dedes016 @ZakariaMDv3 @KKaaRRii2 They used to send me a PayPal invoice but they won’t do anymore. Last time I had to join PayPal’s XOOM app and it lets you wire funds directly to their bank in India $$. It sounds complicated but not really. The sellers are super polite and can text in English no problem.
