Hi, i bought some thing from a seller online and i transferred to his account last week. He contacted to me through whatsapp at first and he got good reviews so i trusted him. But now he won't reply me anymore and did not sent any details about the thing.
Is there any way that i can retrieve back the money that i have transferred?
I used public bank and his account is Maybank. I know i should have at first pay deposit and so on but things have happened now and i just need to know what i should do next.
Thank you.
If there's any Maybank banker here, it would be nice.

well , confirm you cant get back those $ , even you lodge a report polis also record only , the change you get back those money = 0

Money transffered. Nothing you can do at bank. Report police. How much you paid?

normally money transfer for different banks takes 3 working days. if still less than 3 working days, try contact your bank if can block the transfer.

well, this is just sad. Oh well. I guess it's a good lesson for me then.

I rather not to say the amount as it is very embarrassing But i bought it on eBay. There's like a open case thing i could do. Fingers crossed i guess.

u can always report to ebay first if u use payment methods such as paypal , ur money can be claim back. but since u direct transfer, uh well.. bye bye

Do you think like i can get information from the bank and track this guy down? I saw his whatsapp and he's still active though. Just that he won't respond.

i think TS bank-in direct...ebay can't help like that.

yea i think so but if they use other ppl's account then u wont be able to find out who he/she is also.

True. Oh well. Such a good lesson for me. Thanks

Whatever it is, i can still try my luck right thanks for helping

Maybe the seller is sick and hospitalized?

Happened to me before.

Hmm. He's active in whatsapp though

If the transaction was for an ebay payment, why didn't you pay through ebay's Paypal account?
In that case ebay would've helped..
Wish the seller return the money or send you the item, at least
Wish you luck blackwindow '

I feel stupid though seriously. Thanks for your care :')

blackwindow sent you a pm and post his details here
let us track him lolz

well just learn a lessoon.. u cant do anything if u got scammed

yes u can report police but let me bet 100% u wont get back refund and police will not care about it.. i got scammed RM5k, my uncle got scammer RM52k last year.. the conclusion is u wont get back ur money but move on. Just take it as donation

no need waste time to report police cause u only waste your own time + money to get nothing ,

It's my first time so i'm just asking is there any solutions It was not as much as you did but still, it's still money. Oh well. Just trying my best. I certainly agree with you about the police report :/ That is why i'm losing some hopes here.

where got so long.. before 12.30 pm transfer, noon 5pm + can get d

if paid through ebay can claim by filing dispute
