Dear BrickLink Buyer,
We have reason to believe that BrickLink seller is running a scam.
We recommend you file a chargeback with your payment provider immediately.

It seems very short and there is no detail. I would have thought Bricklink would
get involved with payment processors rather than simply direct me to contact
them, particularly without any details to raise a dispute.
Is this a legitimate email? Is there a Bricklink contact to follow up on this?
Thanks

| check the store they are referencing. bricklink is not involved in the payments
so no they will not do it for you. if the seller you bought from has their selling
privileges revoked and says that its a likely scam such as this store https://store.bricklink.com/fruffo?itemID=355431265#/suspend
then id file right away with paypal

Embedded codes are not shown, and so it doesn't read correctly if the redacted
is missing. Ive put spaces in so it is clear.
Only the purchaser can initiate a paypal complaint. Do you have an open order
with the seller named in the email? Ask them for tracking or proof of postage.

Opps, even mine disappeared. For other readers, there is the word "redacted"
after seller.

Thanks for your reply. Sorry about the "redacted"
So it sounds like this is a legitimate email from bricklink. I imagine I should
only pursue a PayPal refund if I actually have a problem with my order. (i.,e.
if my order was fine then there is nothing to do)
