Time card fraud

I recently purchased several time cards from a private seller through ebay.com. These cards were previously scratched but the seller assured me that they had never been subsequently applied to any account. I have now verified that these cards were previously used by trying and failing to apply them to my account. I am in the process of opening a paypal claim against this seller and would like blizzard to furnish supporting documentation if possible. It would be useful if I could have the time when these time codes were used and the account(s) to which they were applied to substantiate my claim that they were previously used. I have tried contacting blizzard's phone support but the line has always been busy. Please let me know if this would be possible and to whom I might send the relevant time codes for verification.

Q u o t e:
I would be satisfied if they could merely establish the date when these cards were applied. If they were applied prior to my purchase, it would seem pretty obvious that they were sold under false pretenses. I am not too worried though since paypal does have the insurance guarantee and I have been successful in claims of this nature before without this sort of substantiating evidence.
