I am going to go to The Citizens Advice Bureau and see what they say at the weekend. What i thought we could do to start with is to get the following details from everybody involved who has been scammed;
Name
Address
Contact Number
Item Number
Total Loss
Along with any correspondence you have had with the seller, paypal receipts, emails anything at all.
If we all provide this information and the contact The Citizens Advice Bureau individually and see what they say? Then we can all go to the police and obtain and crime reference number?

I'm just about to leave to go to citizens advice now and then onto the police station. If any body has already been to the police i'd be grateful if you could provide me with your crime reference number? I'll report back later with what i have been told. Together maybe we can get our money back.

Well the bureau was closed but i have received two reference numbers so far from others in the same situation and i am waiting for a call back from Hull Police.
If you are reading this and are in the same situation i urge you to contact Hull Police on the following number;
0845 60 60 222
Please pm me for my reference number which i will gladly provide, hopefully if enough people come forward we can get somewhere with this. I ask everyone to update this thread with any news or send a pm.
You can also contact me on;

Thanks, looks like where getting somewhere now, hopefully the total amount will be in excess of £1,00o so the police can take it further, i'm just waiting for them to contact me back but mine is not the only complaint they have had. She has already been investigated in October.
First time i have ever been scammed on eBay over 300+ positive feedback oh well what can you do. I just hope justice will be done and she is made to face the consequences of her actions.

So has anybody else reported her? I think Hull police have had around 5 people make a complaint against her but i bet there are many other people out there.

I would still give it a shot, it's pretty obvious you won't get them. Maybe you could inform them now get a head start maybe?

Ebay and Paypal waste of time.
Ticketmaster no help either. (Bitch was good enough to send me email confirmation of original ticket purchase in her name!)
Going to cop shop at weekend - £270 out pocket and now without a Christmas present for my wife.
I also found what looks like her on tripadvisor; so I created an account and sent her a message pretending to ask about somewhere she visited - got a response within 24hrs so she's still out there.
Her pre-pay mobile 07871870530 is permanently turned off and voicemail PIN has been changed (can't hack in or reset without deleting all msgs..)
Sorry to hear others have been conned by her also - send me private message and we can collaborate.
If anyone knows how to find items she bought on ebay, we could confirm her address from people who posted stuff to her.
Thanks

I too was conned by this person. However in a sense I guess I was lucky and managed to claim my money back through paypal (with the help of some very nice ebayers in the forum).
However I am more than happy to go to the police if it helps other people get there money back - but what do I need to do?
Also there is a group on ebay related to this - it may help some people.
