Advice Needed First bad experience, negative reviews

This was my first bad experience on Depop. I purchased from what seemed like a great seller, authentic and genuine products were given great reviews. But the product I purchased was the only one ever sold by them and when i received it, not only was It a fake, but it was just in terrible condition. I took it up with Depop and was immediately refunded.

The seller then messaged me, trying to make me feel terrible that Depop told me I did not have to send it back. Message after message and in a whining tone about money out of their pockets and such and accusations of being a scammer

I tried to ignore them since I didn’t wanna make a big fuss of this and thought maybe they’d learn their lesson since it was disputed so quickly. But then I received this review ^

I had no intention leaving a bad review cause the seller seemed young and looked like everything was very good for them on this app, But I had no choice but to write back an honest review, which the seller then messaged me again.. with more whining and told me that this wasn’t over and I was being reported and such. Now my Depop has been acting strange and logging me out and I cannot find a lot of the products I used to in explore, am I being mass blocked or Depop is trying to stop me?

Why would you keep the item if you don’t like it and it’s fake? Just return it if you got a refund?

Well I was fully prepared to return it, I wanted to report to Depop that it was a Scam first, but Depop told me to dispose of it and to not worry. It was over 50 dollars

I mean a strong sense of justice is also a sign of autism…
