SupraJames Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Received this email via ebay concerning my SmartPhone/PDA I have listed on their at the mo, I'm 99% sure its a scam but anyone else had anything like this..?? Mail Read: Dear Seller, I plan to give this item for my sister in indonesia, she work there for 1 year. she ask me item like this but I am not realy sure about price for this item. Can you please arrange shipping cost to indonesia and let me know all total payment. I will pay you more if you can help me for this gift, I plan to make payment now from your paypal money request as invoice so there won't be any misunderstanding between us. Please message me for more news. Best Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Yeah sounds like it because he says "item", it's a cut and paste thing he uses for lots of eBay listings. Quote him a ridiculously high figure and see if he goes for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ads Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Make sure they don't send you a phony Paypal link tho. It will look like the funds have been deposited and are cleared. It will just be a mock up of your paypal site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will just be a mock up of your paypal site. Ive had one of those before! Stopped using paypal now due to all the scams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I had something like this but they won the auction, I was so annoyed I quoted £150 post to Nigeria and they said yes! Obviously it was just the usual fake paypal link email and I didn’t post to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
