New type of customer cheating at Amazon
I've noticed recently new type of customer's cheating.
2 times last month.
Customer orders 2 units, then he sends message that he got 1 unit, he writes that he recordered short movie how he opened the package but cannot attach it
in messages via Amazon and he just sends me photos showing 1 unit in opened box.
Of course he could take it away earlier.
Finally he asks - when will I send second unit?
Of course this is common robbery - customer wants 1 unit for free. Packages are packaged in warehouse
with cameras watching and I can send proof to Amazon showing that I sent 2 packages as ordered.
But I know Amazon will keep buyer's side and I will only have long-time trouble with unfair customer so I sent him second unit in second package to finish
crazy situation.
Any advices for me in future?

Don’t do what you did!

Were they 2 separate orders or 2 units on one order?

2 units in 1 order, customer cheated that he just got one, what is absurd
packed under cameras, sent by ups

Nothing much you can do about this if the customer lies.
Never send a second item though all you are doing is giving into the customer who will be encouraged to try it on with other sellers because they got a freebie once.
Just tell the customer you have checked the CCTV packaging and 2 units were certainly packed and if they could please check again.
You probably won't hear from the customer again and only a very small percentage will then take it up with Amazon.

I have had this also! I replied back to ask the colour of the packaging the item was received in, my white jiffy bags only fit 1 unit so for more than one it would be brown, I had no response back and they have opened an a-z claim and Amazon have refunded both units!! I have counter claimed as the shipping label size and weight dictates 2 units and I do the labels from a list of weights and measurements I take after packing! Its not often that 2 of this item are ordered so I do remember packing it up and I 100% sent 2. See what happens.

It really is time that the police were dealing with the extortionate amount of online theft that goes on with Amazon customers or Amazon should change their policies to support a seller when that seller can prove beyond a doubt that the order was delivered successfully.

I've started getting these, one customer has tried it 3 times now and I cannot win!

For future orders, if you're sending high value items you could try sending them in separate parcels so you have 2 tracking numbers and can then prove delivery of both. I don't know how that'd work with Amazon's tracking system but at least you'd have proof both were delivered to the customer.
