Default eBay scam alert

Hey all,

Not sure where to put this, but wanted to share a quick story to make sure you also don't get scammed.

My friend bought a 1954 Bowman Ted Williams right before Thanksgiving for around $1,000. The seller sent it three or four days later and wrote a note to him on eBay to apologize for the delay and to let him know when the card arrived.

In the meantime, the seller closed his account. When the card arrived today after a week, there was a .50 cent Paul Goldschmidt inside.

The eBay seller was ajarris25. His alleged name is Adam Arris. I would give the address he used but worried it might not be his and don't want to give some innocent person's address out.

My friend is worried he's out the money. He said he filed his return claim and has to ship the item back within three days. Is there any chance he actually gets his money back, or is he just out that money considering the guy closed up shop and is gone?

Just wanted to alert you all.
