Another E-bay Scam ?

[Bill Pritchard]

Hi Carl, nice to see you here on the Supercar site.

Sounds like you did the right thing in contacting eBay. You really have to watch yourself in dealings like that.....as you say, if something sounds fishy, it probably is. I decided to quit using PayPal because I was getting all sorts of strange sounding - but absolutely official looking - emails purporting to be from PayPal, asking me to 're-register my account' or something like that They were all bogus, too

The Pay-Pal emails are phisher ones that go to anyone....not just those w/ accounts. . I've never had a Pay-Pal account but get them and the phoney eBay ones almost every day? .

guys there really working the second chance offer deal hard these days...

I sold a motor yesterday and the buyer was hit last week with the same deal on a boat he was going for, and he almost sent the deposit but called the guy and he said no way the first buyer had it, done deal.

there getting all the newbies and taking them to the cleaners, I love e bay but this crap really needs to stop, they have the power to do it but dont want to spend the dough it would take to get r done. to bad we cant get some real press on there lack of protecting people.
