To try and keep things short, I'm selling a PS4 bundle on ebay and have been pm'd by a seller offering me £340 + £20 postage for it.
They requested me to send an invoice to their paypal address and (which I did) and said that they would pay me that way.
Instead, they insist that they have paid me (they haven't, according to my paypal the invoice has not been paid) and keep telling me to check my eBay email address spam folder for their proof of payment.
It looks like a fairly obvious scam to me and this explains the 'too good to be true' price they were offering to pay.
I was wondering if you guys could come up with any good ways of GOOFIN them back? As they have given me an address they would like the PS4 to be sent to.
Pic is the email they sent to me

Send cops to their house.
Sign them up for all sorts of bullshit.
Send them a box of snakes.
I'm not really a prankster by trade.
what a horribly written phishing email.

really feel like going to the place and having fisty cuffs with them as Coventry is only half an hour from where I live.
Though, I feel that being a bit more intelligent about it would fuck with them more.

Why not just contact the police?
On google maps that address looks like an apartment building. Have you considered that the person named may be a neighbor of the scammer, and not the scammer himself?

had the same thing happen to me. I sent them some of my dogs poop and gave them the trackign details for that.

The UK police will do fuck all about this. Mainly because they're underfunded as fuck. another reason being that the scammer hasn't actually scammed me yet. They will simply log it and that's about it. The only way I could get their interest is if I could provide evidence of the scammer's actual address and not some proxy address like this one probably is.
