this is the question i was referring to....


Question Posted Thursday January 1 2009, 5:50 pm

since i don't know what a url is or how to get 1 i just coppied the question!! lol sorry!!
I believe that a site called qxbid.com is a fraudulent auction website. It is a site like eBay.com where you bid on items to win. I won a Nintendo Wii and the seller told me that she had shipped it out and never really did. She even went as far as to print out a label through FedEx.com to make me think that she did. That was the last time that I had heard from her and that was when the auction ended. I have tried contacting her and the web site over and over and over again and no response from either of them. FedEx states that it was never shipped out and the woman actually went and marked my item unpaid. This site and it's sellers are scam artists who are only out to steal money from good people and I would like to know how to shut them down so that they can no longer do this again!! This was my child's only Christmas gift and they ruined that for her!! If anyone knows how to go about shutting them down please contact me!! Thank you and happy holidays!!

Ahh.

The link I gave you was to a forum that will allow you to figure out the ISP (internet service provider)

This is the company that hosts this website.

From there, you can contact them and make complaints. Usually doesn't do anything, but if enough complaints are registered they might look into taking the site down. Thats all you can do. But more than likely its not a scam site, but a scam seller. Complaining about her to the actual site won't do anything.

This is one of the hazards of online auctioning. People are quite brave about using the internet to screw with other people.

You should consider just going to Best Buy.com or something and having one shipped if you can't find a local store with stock.
