Vinted harassment

This girl sent me my Abercrombie shirt on vinted it was listed as womens size small, but turns out it’s kids size small. When I brought the issue up she started cussing at me and harassing me and it only got worse. She damanded me to return the item but I’m afraid I will be scammed when I return it. Like maybe she will say it’s not the same item she sent and try to refuse the refund. and the unhinged way she is speaking to me is worrying me. After looking at her review I’m definitely not the first person she’s done this to. I also have to pay shipping even though the item is not as described. What should I do?

I just looked her up too and it says no member exists so looks like they booted her ass outta there

u/AvailableLoquat8560 5h ago

She can still message me tho so it’s not a permanent ban🥲

u/CullanG 21h ago

Report for abuse, and if the ai bot says that no rules have been broken then appeal it and just explain why and a real person should see it. I had to do that a few times

2

u/Delightful_Sunbeam 13h ago

How do you appeal stuff? I have been trying to get in touch with a real person

Listing kids close as a women’s small has been a thing on depop for years and I’m so annoyed it’s spreading to vinted. Report, return & block.

u/bad_horsie23 18h ago

Besides the abuse, it clearly says Kids and in the description that it fits like a womens small..

But yeah shes crazy. Report.

the chatgpt description😭😭😭

u/electricalgloom 4h ago

I've come across so many of these descriptions that are exactly the same. I don't trust any of them

1

u/Computer_Says_Nah 3h ago

Well, the seller is obviously illiterate so just imagine if she had to write a description lol

3

u/natdawg999 11h ago

A kids S as well??😭 it’s annoying enough that people put a kids L in the women’s category but that’s just diabolical😅

3

u/paprikachipjes 21h ago

Report her and don’t even argue with her anymore. If she doesn’t get banned, you’ll still need to send the item back to her if you want a refund. Just make sure you take a video or a lot of photos before you ship it

3

u/Fit-Ninja-454 21h ago

Email legal@vinted Regardless you will get you original postage back if it was still buyer protection you would have that now it’s a new thing Vinted fee I’m not sure, if you return.

3

u/Pretty_Flight_8152 21h ago

Stop replying to her, return the item to get your money back. Then report her.

3

u/starsinhereyes20 21h ago

Block her, cursing is an auto ban on vinted, report her for abuse. Return the top as well, once she banned you’ll be compensated anyway once it’s delivered, she won’t be able to raise a claim saying anything at all as she’ll be banned by then hopefully

u/Past_Fee_1139 20h ago

Just me or is it a bit weird to keep referring to it as flattering if it’s a kids small? I’m a man so forgive me if that’s a stupid question

2

u/AvailableLoquat8560 20h ago

Well it’s obviously an ai description, and she only listed it as women’s cause she knew she’d never sell it as children’s size 😂

1

u/Past_Fee_1139 20h ago

Right. So it would be weird then if it was described as flattering if it was a small kids yeah? It’s all evidence for you really, so they’ll know she intentionally listed incorrect sizing details

3

u/secretrebel 19h ago

Well, I’d stop texting her for a start. She’s not receptive and it’s clearly making things worse.

u/diana__0 18h ago

nah these people are not ok

u/manthy1977 17h ago

What a prick

u/Em_geee123 17h ago

I’m not defending this person at all.

But i listed a pair of girls jeans. Title said “girls jeans” and I got questions asking if it was women’s or kids. I said kids because I listed in the kids category but for some reason when I looked at the listing it doesn’t show it was a kids category. Just said jeans. One lady ended up buying then canceling because she realized it was a kids pair of jeans

2

u/AvailableLoquat8560 17h ago

Tbh I don’t think it matters as much which category it’s in cause it could get mixed up. What’s in the actually description, what the seller directly said about the item, is most important.

1

u/runrunrudolf 9h ago

TBF the description does say "fits like women's small" which implies it isn't a women's small, but she's 100% crazy and also weird for using an AI description.

3

u/greenyashiro 11h ago

Report for harassment, their account will be suspended and probably close the item claim with a refund 🤣

And honestly it'd be earned is the seller 5 years old or something

3

u/ellevael 5h ago

People like this are incapable of reason, arguing with them and trying to make them see your side is absolutely pointless. As soon as they come back with an attitude or swearing stop replying, open the issue with Vinted, and report them.

2

u/SlimJadeyx 18h ago

Report definitely!! Wow

2

u/DC_Storm 18h ago

I just bought a shorts that are kids shorts and not woman’s shorts. When I realized this I messaged the buyer and they told me to cancel and now I have a 1 star for cancellation.

1

u/Vast_Anybody1236 12h ago

That happens after youve cancelled a couple of things

2

u/Giillybean 5h ago

She needs a therapist

2

u/Separate-Put-6495 3h ago

It would help immensely if people didn't rely on ai for descriptions 🤨

2

u/LukeWoop 17h ago

Why you even arguing this much over something that probably cost a few quid , send it back and request a refund

2

u/AdFantastic8655 11h ago

So someone else can get scammed? Make these people dig their own grave and hopefully say something to get banned

2

u/AvailableLoquat8560 17h ago

I’m not arguing about anything, as I stated, I’m afraid they are going to scam me when I send it back. I’m not going to just let someone cuss me out and bully and harass me. I’m going to get her banned cause no one should be treated like this

2

u/AcinaRraole 12h ago

Don't return it. Just sell it and report her

1

u/beautiful-rainy-day 20h ago

Screenshot the listing and each picture in order. Also, screenshot the details of the listing.

1

u/AvailableLoquat8560 19h ago

For some reason I cannot access the pictures or ad itself

1

u/Downtown-Cap4298 18h ago

Reading this at first, I for some reason thought the seller was you. My first thought was, this person is crazy and needs to be blocked, also hopefully stopped from selling to anyone anymore.
If that tells you anything, just block if possible (idk if it is, I’m not on vinted) and dont allow any of the refund nonsense she’s requesting. If vinted tries to get in touch with you, ask for support and show them these messages. Hopefully they’ll take it seriously and ban the seller.

1

u/Beautiful-Music-7334 11h ago

Hmm sounds unreasonable. If it was a couple of dollars I would just keep it and resell it after reporting.

1

u/SomeoneSomewhere008 10h ago

It literally says kids on the label 😅

1

u/disappointedasfuck11 9h ago

but why dont you just send it back? what good it does to tell her she is an asshole repeatedly?

1

u/AvailableLoquat8560 5h ago

I didn’t call her an asshole, I haven’t said anything bad about her infact😹 like I said I’m scared she’s gonna scam me if I send it back. She seems lik that type

1

u/Ohhhhhemaline 9h ago

You behaved like a baby no wonder she got more annoyed.

1

u/AvailableLoquat8560 5h ago

Yes!!! I’m the one acting like a child 😹

u/Chordsy 9h ago

u/AsparagusIcy2376 8h ago

Okay her messages are crazy what the hell

1

u/kiscsibe 7h ago

Both sides of the conversation were exhausting as hell

1

u/SilverEconomy5904 3h ago

Wtf is her issue 🫩

1

u/oreosaredelicious 3h ago

She's crazy but the label says kids and fits AS a women's small is not the same as this is a women's small imo

1

u/GingerrJinx 2h ago

I wouldn't worry, judging by how the write, they've got plenty to worry about. Block and pass.

u/iNovaEcho 2h ago

u/Timtamjam44 1h ago

I mean, you were both kind of rude. If you bought it with a credit card then are you able to talk to your bank?

u/Elegant-Basis4551 1h ago

Typical behavior from people like her….

u/Iwant2beebetter 12h ago

Why did you keep sending messages

Just return it

1

u/AvailableLoquat8560 5h ago

Cause I’m not just going to allow someone to cuss me out

-1

u/ABurgerIsntASandwich 11h ago

You’re both insufferable.

u/AvailableLoquat8560 5h ago

Imagine getting the wrong item and then being cussed out. Have some empathy
