There is a scam masquerading as an online high-end shoe store, named Shoes Mall Baba. Two weeks after placing an order for $60.50, and paying with PayPal, I received a cheap mouse pad from a private courier instead of the shoes. I was required to sign for the package, and that way they could show PayPal that they mailed a package that was received by the Buyer. Here is another catch PayPal requires the Buyer to return the incorrect merchandise to the Seller, and provide tracking information. The mailing cost of the package, with tracking, from the U.S. to China, will run anywhere from $30 to $75. The Seller is betting that nobody will want to incur that extra expense. What a great scam!

 Today, I was informed by PayPal that they would not be honoring their Buyer Protection Plan on my purchase because I refused to send the ridiculous $3 mouse pad back to China. So, I will be closing my Business PayPal account, and the PayPal Debit Card has been cancelled.
