Hi Tom and All There is another scam on the go with ebay, UPS and Western Union. It goes like you bid on something on eBay, someone else contacts you and offers to sell the article at whatever price you bid. You need deposit the money with Western Union and this person will send the goods via UPS. The notice comes from UPS, you pays your money and thats the last you'll hear. Seems the UPS addresses are fraud. A friend got burned. No doubt he'll not be the only one. Have a nice winter Oaul
