I won Ebay Auction #150002215361,97 grams of 14K Gold and Diamond Jewelry including a heavy charm bracelet 6/26/06. Amount was $947-. This was 1 of 3 purchases along with 2 others bing $10- each small purchases from Lori Dawson and William Dawson known on ebay as lori9598.
I sent a business check priority mail which was shown in ebay as received 6/29/06. The check cleared my bank on 7/3/06, yes very quickly. I wrote to the Dawsons on 7/12 asking where is the shipment. She wrote back the next day saying she ws suprised the check was cleared,,though it had been cleared 9 days already. She wrote on 6/12 and promised to mail the items at once. The return label on the box I received was dated 6/17 and inside was only the two $10- items and NO,,thats right, NO GOLD Jewelry. The box was new priority and it appeared that no one at the postal service had tampered with it. I am a jeweler shipping and receiving items daily so I know to make very thorough inspection of boxes. Lori and William do not return phone calls, always only emails thru ebay so we dont know her actual email address. This only adds to the evidence against them as scammers. They play an innocent act, but the beligerence in their correspondance to me seems to be carrying a message of insullence. Meaining they think they cannot be caught at this act.
The simple fact is Lori and William intentionally ripped me off, probably sold this gold to some refiner in the area they live as there are several,,or maybe never had this gold jewelry at all, or just kept it and ran this scam. I am hoping to get the Riverside RI Police involved as soon to have them charged with Felony Fraud.

I contacted Lori on 6/12 asking when the item was shipped, she stated she was unaware check had cleared,she would ship at once.At same time informed Lori we would be leaving for vacation on 7/20 and needed the item before we leave. However according to records she did not
ship until 6/17. Picked up box at PO on 7/28,2 items inside,

More info on ebay member "lori9598".. and for Jeffery..
AUTHOR: Steve - (U.S.A.)

Jeffery,
This seller has only 1 feedback entry, and that is from a seller. There is no feedback from buyers at all.
I would have never gone near this seller on anything over $10.
Be sure you leave the negative feedback to warn others and follow up on the ebay complaint to get an investigation open. Fraud complaints will shut down a users account that has been dormant for a long time or new, or no feedback history.
Shut these fools down!
#1 Consumer Suggestion
File a complaint with ebay, and make a front and back copy..
AUTHOR: Steve - (U.S.A.)

Jeffery,
Be sure to file a complaint with ebay right away, and then back it up with a copy of the check front and back.
What kind of feedback rating did these "sellers" have? Did they have a "verified" address? Did you request insurance for the purchase amount?
I would never send anyone a check for more than $100 purchase on ebay, and I don't care how good their feedback rating is! There is no recourse through ebay with a check, except to get them shut down. At least with PayPal or a credit card you have some level of recourse.
You will have to file a lawsuit against them with that copy of your cancelled check. Do it quick so you can go after that bank account they deposited your check in.
You can write to their bank and turn them in for fraudulent activity and see if they have had any other complaints. Also, this is interstate financial fraud which puts it in the jurisdiction of the FBI.
Good luck!
