4TH of July, potential Ebay scammer??

Post by zaphod777 » Wed Jul 04, 2007 11:16 pm

Scroll down and check out the very large selection of vintage underpriced guitars for sale. Almost all with entirely different backgrounds in the photos.

http://electronics.search.ebay.com/_Vin ... heebasadie

Strangely all for the same price.

My email to the seller
I'm interested in the telecaster and the two strats.
How much is shipping?
What is the payment method?
I live in the US, I have friends in the UK that I would like to inspect the guitars, before payment, What part of the UK do you live in?

Thanks Fred
There reply
Hi,

The buy it now price is 600 GBP (1,200$US) including shipping and handling.

The deal will be made through an eBay program which will protect both of us. If you are ready for the deal let me know your full name and shipping address and i'll start the deal with eBay.

Regards
Notice how all three of my question where completely ignored.
VERY fishy...
What are the odds that if I give him my info, the next email I recieve will be a fake "official ebay" looking email asking for my credit card info?

Check out his history, he's buying and selling a bunch of cheap shit, using the same pics and page layout as the person he bought it from.....
If I was a good student I wouldnt be attending music school.
