so it would be best not to sell them?

It's your call. As said, nothing may ever happen.

To help avoid being traced, you'd need to fully anonymize your credentials, especially your payment method - the account where the money will be deposited (from the buyer) upon sale.

I mean, it depends on the method that you used. If you used something like DNA, where the airpods could be in anyones hands, I believe it should be safe to sell them as long as you don't use your real name when selling them.

i used MEB but i dont know if it got registered as lost or anything, i got my refund basically instantly when saying my box was empty.

did you use a fresh account ?

@jjjtool, have you made a decision on the sale?

Never actually considered this but i feel like there would need to be a police level investigation for them to dig that deep.

Not necessarily.

If the transaction demonstrates you're the original buyer who sold an Item that's supposed to be non-existent (and the company has knowledge of It), then they can take further action - without police Intervention.

I was thinking the company who was hit would need access to your bank statement to see that you both bought/refunded the item and then sold it thereafter to make the link. What i think you are saying is if you had personally identifying details associated with the sale such as your FB account then that plus their records showing it is a refunded item under your name would be enough ?

No bank statement needed.

Although for security reasons your credit card/bank account number Is not fully exposed, companies can see x-amount of digits. For Instance, Amazon can see the first 6 digits - which Is enough to link transactions. Other companies differ - they may (for example) only see the last 4 digits, or the first 2 and 3 In the middle and so on, and so forth.

Why do you think It's a necessity to change your payment method to prevent multi-accounting exposure? Companies can Instantly Identify It based on the above criteria.

Im aware of this I just wasn't sure how they would be getting info on the sale itself but I see now.

Apologies, It wasn't targeted at yourself, but rather speaking In general.

I should've stated exactly that.
