I receiv ed a clothes pin mailed to me in a package from Robbie [removed], [removed] Ohio. The SKU is Christmas619.  My mail notification states Paypal Postpay GPS.

  Christmas619 was a scam which I nearly fell for last year for a power washer advertised on the Internet. My credit card company reimbursed me for the fraud. I never received the power washer.

I just received a similar package today from Robbie xxx, [removed], Cincinnati OH [removed] which included a clothes pin, SKU: Christmas 700*1. I have no idea why I received this, but according to my name listed in full twice in the label, it appears that someone has hacked Paypal personal account info!

On the bottom of the package is the SKU. On mine, it read "Christmas619" which was the name of an internet ID which attempted to defraud me when I purchased an online power washer which I cancelled when I realized their website was invalid. I notified my credit card company and had that credit card discontinued and another one reissued.

  It is only a guess, but I am guessing that this fraudulent company will use the shipping confirmation from this clothes pin as confirmation of  receipt of delivery for the power washer.  I am not worried as I had cancelled the credit card and they cannot charge me but I do suspect this is another attempt at fraud.

Hello, Everyone! 

Thanks for reaching out in the Community! 

I'm very sorry to hear that you have all received items that were not what you ordered. If your purchases were conducted through PayPal as a Goods & Service transaction, then you will likely have the option to file a Significantly Not As Described dispute under PayPal's Buyer Protection. When you open your case, please be as detailed as possible regarding what you received, as opposed to what you ordered. If you do not hear back from the merchant within 20 days of opening your dispute, please escalate it to a claim so we can step in and help out. 

I hope this helps!

Was the SKU at the bottom of the label Christmas 619? You might want to alert your credit card companies about possible risks.
