    DPD Stole items from my shipment...

    Hi all, thanks for your replies. We sent a claim to DPD and to the Bulgarian counterpart. Also supplied the documents required, invoices for the items, etc. It may take quite some time, but will keep this topic updated to keep it a good reference for others who have the same issue in the future.

    DPD Stole items from my shipment...

    We sent 6-7 parcels actually, all of them except the last one arrived just fine. Nothing missing, broken, etc. We took the default liability insurance offered by DPD, which will be just enough, I suppose. Or at least will offset a big chunk of the losses. We did not take higher levels of...

    DPD Stole items from my shipment...

    Thanks, but I doubt it. The tracking number shows it is delivered, so I do not believe there will be something more. I will contact them on Monday and update you here, I will file a claim but the fact is very unpleasant.

    Bought an Online Store but did not get it

    Yes, this is what I meant. It was advertised as generating less than 100 pounds profit per month (60-80 recently). This is not that bad to start with. However, what I got is exactly as you said - zero income, because of no traffic, since no affiliate accounts linked to the site. Thanks for...

    Bought an Online Store but did not get it

    Thanks all for the replies, I appreciate them very much. I think we will be able to sort this out with the seller directly, but if not - the link shared will be much helpful. @Clinton Sorry, I am not sure if I did come accross any of your articles. As said, I read a lot about potential scams...

    Bought an Online Store but did not get it

    Hi, thanks a lot for the reply. Actually, he is from the UK. I read a lot about these scams, but in the advert and in our conversations he confirmed that the site has income, existing connections, etc. So I decided it is all fine and went ahead. It was for 1000 pounds actually, with small...
