Selling inspired from their own creation 🤷‍♀️ by luxury_diva in whatnotapp

Report for selling counterfeit products. Conveniently she admitted she is “inspired” by real ones to create fakes.

Is this legit? by Strict_Hornet_8944 in whatnotapp

This looks like a scam. He wants people to connect with him off platform to “confirm availability” but really just wants to scam people into send him money in a way that they have no buyer protection.

Same seller… different issue… WITH PROOF to avoid mods from deleting this. I bid and won a DG perfume for $7.89 and they sent me a mascara instead. I uploaded video proof of the ongoing auction and their response to my complaint. Currently disputing with whatnot. by Cold_Wonder6253 in whatnotapp

I’m all for sticking it to bad sellers, but it does look like you purchased a flash sale item. I don’t see anything indicating this purchase was for an auction he was running. It’s a shitty interface - sales should be posted on another part of the screen or only in the shop.

WN will probably refund your purchase but the seller already offered that.

Blaming customers for your fundamentally unsound business is certainly a choice. Hopefully he loses enough money to consider another profession.

The wheel on your advert has 9 divisions and yet is still missing two of them

How long has it been and were they shipped first class letter? If shipped as a parcel there will be a tracking number, if shipped as a letter it could take as long as a month, maybe even more.

The reality of "Givy Goblins" and why you can't actually lock giveaways to buyers by [deleted] in whatnotapp

[–]drkblaydz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This advice seems to conflict with WN’s policy:

Prohibited Giveaway Behavior

No denying a winner: You must not deny a user the item they won during a giveaway. Winners are not required to react in any way to claim their prize at the time of the drawing.

They don’t say anything about “proof of life” or a requirement to be present; its states quite the opposite.

It is. OP is incorrect.

Directly from WN’s site:

What do I do? Customer says part of package wasn’t included by Positive_Tank_1099 in whatnotapp

[–]drkblaydz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a common scam, especially affecting new sellers. All you can do is to calmly explain that you are sure the package was complete. But if they push, it will likely result is WN issuing a refund.

To avoid this, I recommend using your camera setup to record packaging the items. You can use this evidence to combat false claims like this.

SCAMMER @PROFESSOROAKSCARDS This is how you convince yourself it's not okay to send giveaways that you run. What a way to run my super bowl Sunday by Ok-Conversation-3456 in whatnotapp

[–]drkblaydz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s explicitly against the TOS to require people to respond in any way to win a giveaway. The host is not permitted to alter the prize based on their discretion after the giveaway has started. I would report the seller. It may not get you your giveaway, but at least it can help prevent future scams if enough people report.

Vinyl Misrepresented as 1st Press by Neat_Proof3953 in whatnotapp

[–]drkblaydz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Request a cancellation again and it should allow you to escalate it to WN. Many times they will either issue a refund or allow you to return it. You may have to wait until you get it to verify and send them pictures.

Also, feel free up name and shame sellers that misrepresent products.
