No, Royal Mail kept their side of the contract. The posty would have entered a code into the PDA in lieu of a signature.

You were defrauded, you should involve the police.

Just wondering if payment was made through PayPal? Surely if that’s the case then they if they see fit could return the ladies money from the buyer? :wink:

Wonder if anyone has some advice.

I have been a victim of fraud and have asked the chairmans office to step in.

I sent a special delivery item valued at 460 pounds which was my engagement ring I had to sell on ebay as due to coronavirus have no money and cannot look after my family.

The parcel was delivered yet 4 days later the buyer stated that he did not sign for it and even started a money claim with the courts as ebay closed the case as saw it was delivered.

He threatened and blackmailed me with a ccj I gave in and gave him the money back and I now know he has my ring and the money.

The local delivery office has spoken to the driver who recalled the buyer opening the door and picking it up from the door step he knows the buyer as is a regular to the area.

This clearly is fraud against me and royal mail will royal mail help me with compensation and will royal mail take action against this buyer as he has used the virus situation to commit frsud.

I am extremely upset at no longer having my ring without all this happening surely royal mail should involve the police

Any advice would be appreciated.

I used to work at a post office and have never seen anyone so blatant like this before

If anyone has any knowledge of setting up a go fund me page I would happily chuck in a couple of quid to wards this lady's money she has lost.

Wouldn't take much if everyone did.

I know we don't know her and the story but I would feel like I have done something good.
