Gift cards (including eBay cards) are untraceable, one reason why scammers love them. So they can't be tracked as easily as you think.

MadelineCook1988 @gmail .com is now posting fake ads for a Polaris Sportsman (with a snowplow attachment... in Florida) Alisonparker576 @gmail .com - fake CL ads for a 2008 Honda Rancher. KatieHawkins149 @gmail com - fake ads for a golf cart.
I supposedly bought the Polaris. It's the first time I've done ebay. What can I do to get money back? I did this to help a friend who wanted one for his daughter for her birthday who also lost her mom a week and a half prior to this. Please help.
How did you pay? If you bought gift cards and sent them the numbers from the back, the money's gone. Gift cards can't be charged back and are untraceable.
Really wish this deal was true, but has a lot of hints that it's spam..
I received the following from madelinecook1988@gmail.com: Hi, happy to see you're interested in my 2015 Polaris Sportsman 570 EFI, my name is Madeline Cook and I'm a flight attendant.The price for the atv is $1,200 firm including delivery at your address. It has only 40 miles and 23 hours, 570 cc engine, 4x4, 2500 lb Winch, 66" Glacier Snow Plow and power steering. It was gently driven, never taken to off road parks or abused, is in great shape overall,never had any problems and the title is clean as well, under my name. The only reason for selling is that I don't really need it, I won it after the divorce with my ex-husband. Because of my work schedule as flight attendant I'm away most of the time and I can't manage this sale myself and I want to do this through eBay Motors.
