How can I get my money back.
I went onto facebook market to see if anyone had any old nintendo switch consoles they were selling and stumbled upon a deal for 125.- I messaged the person and we came to an agreement that Id pay 125.- plus the shipping cost of 10.- Now my situation is now I had already paid and expected the parcel but when I asked about it she told me that shipping all of a sudden costs an extra 60.- and Id need to pay for that too if I wanted it. I told her that there would be no way I would be paying for that as that 60.- extra came out of nowhere and just doesnt make any sense why it would cost 60.- I then asked her for a refund and she has only responded that I can pay 50.- instead of the full 60.- and I told her that I just wanted my money back since she has been really hard to deal with with hours of no response and ever since she hasnt responded at all. Is there any way I can get my money back at all? I have all screenshots of the conversation we had.

You should always ask for an address and phone number when buying used goods, unfortunately in this case you can’t do much. Only thing you can try to do is call Protekta, but without an address they can hardly do something. Report the account to Facebook to prevent her from scamming other people.
