Fraudulent ID card. Can I do anything?

I received a photo of an ID card as security through a classified ad, transferred money (via PayPal F&F), and haven't received the item. On the front, I have my name, ID number, date of birth, expiration date, nationality, and place of residence. Will this help me? Is there any way I can find out the address, email, or phone number, for example, through the police?

Is the seller really a fraud?

Good to know:

For so-called dispatch purchase – as online transactions among private individuals, the buyer carries the shipping risk.

Name: The shipment can also have been lost on the shipping route or have been stolen after storage in the stairwell.

I got a photo of an ID on classifieds as security….

So you accepted a photo of an ID card. You could have called the salesman, and he would have kept his ID in the camera.

Money transferred (via PayPal F&F)

In this case, no buyer protection can be requested, does not mean that the payee has a PayPal account.

As a damaged person, you have a legitimate interest in the user’s address data.

Experience has shown that PayPal supports the police investigation. Possibly that PayPal refuses the personal output of the user data.

In the case of fraud, of course, you should also indore classifieds.

Can I somehow find out the address, e-mail or phone number, for example, about the police?

Didn’t you need an e-mail address for the PayPal transfer?

If you understand that this is a fake ID, the address will barely keep you.

My personal opinion is:

You don’t write anything about the facts.

  • When was something bought?
  • What type of shipping (send tracking) has been chosen?

Obviously you also know the different PayPal payment options. Why did you decide against the payment options “goods & services” (purchasing protection)?

Can also be an x-popular ID from the net. It’s a common scam. Will be an expensive apprenticeship. If you’ve paid it by bank transfer, the money’s going. Even via friends via PayPal, the money is gone. A fraud ad will run in the sand.

In the future, neither respond to such frauds with ID or “I send a money messenger”.

Der Ausweis ist zu 100% nicht der des Verkäufers.

Überweisungen lassen sich nur innerhalb eines ganz kurzen Zeitfensters zurückholen; aber spätestens wenn das Geld das Empfängerkonto erreicht hat, geht da absolut nichts mehr.

Weder Deine Bank, noch die Empfängerbank können dann noch irgendwas machen, auch wenn von Unwissenden leider immer wieder was anderes behauptet wird.

Hast Du auf ein deutsches Bankkonto, erkennbar am DE in der IBAN überwiesen?

Dann warte noch ein paar Tage ab, wenn dann nichts kommt, dann solltest Du Anzeige wegen Warenbetruges gegen den Bankkontoinhaber erstatten.

Das bringt Dir zwar Dein Geld nicht wieder, das musst Du entweder zivilrechtlich einfordern oder einklagen, es zeigt der Gegenseite aber, dass Du es ernst meinst:

Klicken: Richtig mahnen (an die eigenen Bedürfnisse anpassen!)

Klicken: Online-Mahnantrag

Alternativ könntest Du auch das > Adhäsionsverfahren anwenden.

Kleinanzeigen hilft Dir übrigens nicht, weil die nicht an Eurem Kaufvertrag beteiligt sind und die außer einer Wegwerf-Mailadresse keinerlei weitere Daten ihrer Nutzer haben.

Yes you can do, but the data will not correspond to reality.

Does that bring me anything?

Nope.
If someone cheats, he will not have transmitted any real ID data.

No fraud is so stupid to use his real ID card in his fraud.

You can report to the police, but that won’t do much and you won’t get the money back anyway.

Learn it!
Only personal pickup and cash payment is really safe for classified ads.
If that doesn’t work, only pay with buyer protection!

The VK has certainly “erscamt” and uses it for fraud. If your merchandise doesn’t come, the money is gone and you’re a richer experience

Have you looked at the identity card and compared it to yours?

On my German Perso the place of residence is not on the front, but on the back.

You know what?
