privacy question, trouble with seller

[needsadvice]

What is the name of your state?

Hi I sold something to someone who apparently can't read an ad, and now they want their money back. I told them my ad was clear about the condition of this product. Now they are claiming they are going to do a background check and call my employer. My first question is, can they find out where I work from my name and address?? Also is it legal to harass my work?

Also is it legal to harass my work?

**A: why, does your work need harrassing?

**A: just because they can't read the ad? Heck, we can't even read the ad.

I've had more trouble with e-bay the past 6 weeks than I had the entire first year I was a member.
People just kill me

I guess my question was more, can someone find out where you work if they have your name and address, like by doing one of those background checks? Thanks
