LOL eBay scammers!!!

I wrote in Bspences thread the other day that this guy messaged me on ebay first message he sent said this. [quotefe41219d2e]Dear Seller,

I am very intrested in your item. I need right away because it will be a
gift. Please email me the final price including shipping to Spain via
FedEx 2 Days Express. I will deal only with an escrow company.
The escrow company is a service that protects both buyer and seller against
fraud. I will pay the shipping and escrow fees. If we agree on the price,
we can start the escrow process today and you can have the money in maximum
7 days.

Thanks and please get back to me as soon as possible,
Antonio[/quotefe41219d2e]
i then recieve this message today[quotefe41219d2e]

HI ,

I'm very glad that the item is still available!
First of all I want to apologize for my English and for
my late answer, my mom was sick and I was out of town.
I decided to buy your item so please tell if it`s
necesarry to bid on it.
Like I said you in my first email I want you to ship it
via FedEx 2 day Express because it will be a gift and I
need it fast. Because I want to be safe for both of us
we will close this deal using http//www.SafeBid-LTD.com
A very trustable and professional escrow service.
This service will protect both of us.Please go to
http//www.SafeBid-LTD.com and open a new account with them.
Then INITIATE the transaction and please include the ebay
item# on the description.
I'm already a member and i'm waiting for you to start
the transactreion. For inspection period I think 2 days
(from the day I receive the package) it`s enough.
When you start it please check that box from the step 2
because I want them to ensure the package too, I`ll pay.
After you will start the transaction you will see that
I'm a serious person and I have closed 8 positive
transactions through them.

Best Regards/
Antonio

rofl some people on ebay are simply amazing..... especially when it comes to laptops. Next, he'll tell you his mom is in Nigeria and he wants you to send it there. roll

The worst thing is when you have a "buy it now" option on your item and it turns out to be a scammer that buys your item (


Heres how my ibook auctio is doing
http//cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8732041567&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

not too bad. I could cancel this 0 bidders bid and let the person who offered sligtly less money be the hig bidder. But who knows. maybe a 893453 rated bidder will bid 1000 onmy shite-book D

Lol, you could also ask him why the WhoIs info for the escrow domain is bogus

Ebay is so expensive to list with... It really sucks when scammers force us to relist (
