I'm a bit skeptical about doing this method since I still don't know what could possibly happen to the person who buys the item to be replaced.

In a nutshell, this Is how the wrong Item received method works.

• You purchase the Item you're planning to SE.
  
• You purchase the wrong Item from the same company on a totally different account and sent to another address.
  
• When they request the return, send the wrong Item that you purchased from your other account.
  
• The company will scan It, see that It's part of their Inventory and assume they've Incorrectly packed It with your original purchase.
  
• A refund will be Issued.
  

In the above scenario, you're the person behind both accounts - there are no ramifications to anyone - no one else Is Involved.

Isn't this method possible in the situation I mentioned, @mothered? (My friend buying the item to replace)

Sure, once they scan, they will find out it was his account that purchased the wrong item to replace.

But won't they contact him in any sort of way to find out what he has actually received?

What I was hoping to find out was what are the implications once they found out that it was him who bought the item in the first place.
They might think he got my item for some reason and contact him about it, or even investigate him.

That's what I was really curious about.
