An iPhone for 30 pounds? Uh oh. You might have to kiss that
goodbye. At least it wasn't more.
Anyway it turns out the seller does not take PayPal - and i'm contractually
bound to stick to my bid and pay into this guys account before he ships due
to some story about having lost
I DO NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL BECAUSE MY LAST 2 EXPERIENCES OF PAYPAL WERE SCAMMERS
USING STOLEN ACCOUNTS TO MAKE UNAUTHORISED PAYMENTS.
this is not possible. Once somebody sends money to a certified
address, it's theirs. This guys is just making an excuse for his scam.
> I ACCEPT PAYMENT BY BANK DEPOSIT OR BANK TRANSFER ONLY.
or Western Union? REALLY look out. Why can't he take a check? That's
suspicious. It also goes outside the ebay protection system.
>
MY ITEMS ARE DISPATCHED FROM A DISTRIBUTOR IN THE UK VIA 1ST CLASS POST
WITHIN 48 HOURS OF CLEARED FUNDS
Reading this and travelling around the links of comments it looks like no
one much has been a member more than a few weeks in this little self
congratulatory circle - including the putative "NIGERIAN FRAUDSTER" - its
that language of it all that my paranoia objects to...
Well I guess - I'll stick to paying up and seeing what happens - is it
common for people to set up scams with multiple accounts all voting for each
other?
I don't know. I've had the thought that some ebay pages could be
introduced into the database by skillful hacking. I'm dealing with a
crappy seller right now that won't tell me when my item will arrive.
For a while I thought I was a victim.
