eBay scam

well about a week ago i sold my broken digital camera(fell off desk, works but dosent record), i had no use for it and thought mabye somone out their could fix it.

it went for $91.00, "lovedguy0013" was the winner, with 0 feedback, so i thought great they arent going to pay...

the next day i recived an e-mail...






I know this is a scam (a pretty weak one in fact)
so im not sure what to do.

Either ignore it, mess with them a little bit or send a scam report to eBay/paypal? Has this happend to anyone here?

send a scam report to eBay/paypal

Happens all the time. In your Ebay preferences you can make it where people with negative or 0 feedbacks can't bid on your item. That weeds out a lot of those type issues.

You can file a non-paying buyer to Ebay as well from your "My Ebay" page. You usually have to wait so many days first though, but it'll tell ya. This way Ebay will rescend their charges that they charged you for selling the item, and then your relisting fee as well.

rip off fo sheezy

i sell computers on eBay a good bit, and mostly have these kinds of emails when i sell a laptop. only its mjore rediculous and they say they will send me like 1,500 to end it now for them.
haha. i always tell them to send me the money to my paypal account. once its there, then ill end it early. ha. then thats the end of them.
its really not even worth time to respond, but i would rather let them know that im not an idiot.
so the only way to stop something like what happened to you is when u list ur item, restrict bidders that have 0 feedback. you can also cancel bids people place so u dont get screwed.

just report it to ebay, thats the easiest way.

tell them your brother lives in Nigeria and he's going to pick up the money for you. and tell them he owns a 50cal

hahahahaha
now marks gotta a plan!

Man, that sounds like one of the worst scammers I've heard of. Why do scammers always want you to send it to Nigeria though? Why not setup shop in Canada or Mexico or ANYWHERE else? It seems their scam would at least have a bit more legitimacy if it wasn't always Nigeria, ya know? A buddy of mine got scammed on some shoes just last week. He bought some 'authentic' Air Jordans that turned out to be an obvious fake. They were high quality fakes, but not Nike none the less. eBay is full of shiesters and scammers now

Good luck finding a real buyer.

hahaha.....Thats funny...ppl these days

yap, i sent a message to ebay, they said hes tried this before, so he got suspended, now hes getting kicked off and im getting my fees back
