    So you guys might have seen in my other post im selling my ps2 on ebay. The auction ended yesterday and i get an email from what appeared to be ebay saying there was an Administrative Bid Cancellation because the buyers account was compromised by a third party.( I lator found out this was a fake email) Then I get another fake ebay email saying the eBay Item Listing was Restored Successfully. ya right sure it was. Then comes the best emails form the"buyer" heres the first oneHello have no worry about the message from ebay i owned the account is just that the account was access by the third party and i contact ebay concerning this so i ask them to get the account restore since i find that i can't log in anymore that why you have receive that kind of message so am using this opportunity to inform you that everything is now ok and you will be contact by eBay concerning this we can continue ourtransaction.thanks.Kelvin Morganthen this one Hi Mate,I would like to inform you that the payment has now been sent and the money has been deducted from my account, plz get back to me as soon as you are notified from paypal. I want the item to be shipped asap and i will like to have the tracking number. Also i want you to send the shipment tracking number to paypal customer care ( removed fake link Wink ) , and once they verify the shipment they will credit youraccount.Hope to read from you asapHere is the shipping addressName: John BlessingAddress: No42 Babalola Obisesan Off Ososami Road Oke AdoCity: IbadanState: Oyo StateZipCode: 23402Country: NigeriaTel: +2348077836109I want the item to be shipped Via USPS Global Mail Express Service. EMS, or Fedex for security reasons, paypal will have to verify the shipment of the item before they can get the money credited to your account, because some sellers will receive money and they will not ship out the item, which i have also fallen a victim, so try and get the item shipped immediately and email them the shipment trackingnumber. What a dumass. Did he really think anyone with half a brain would fall for this ? He couldn't have sent me a paypal payment beings i dont have an account with them and said in the auction listings that i only take money orders. If i did have a paypal account i would withdrawl the funds befor i shipped anything. Then he thinks im going to send the goods off on a boat to nigera. What a douchebag ! <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":angry:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"mad.gif\" /> <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":angry:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"mad.gif\" /> <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":angry:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"mad.gif\" />This is one scam i heard to much of, I thought they usually just tried to get your money and run, Not have you send your items to them. Im just glad i was smart enough to see that this was a scam. I used ebays live chat and spoke with a security rep. and turned his thieving ass in.The moral of the story is that if a e mail/message dosnt show up in your my ebay pages its bogus.I just thought iwould share this incase anyone else gets a tard like this trying to hijack there auction.

    sorry to hear about that man! Yeah it's real popular to scam in Nigeria. This Nigerian music star even made a music video about it. I guess it's similar to being a criminal and rich in our music videos. lol<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1nKR3gYRY8\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1nKR3gYRY8</a>

    Scum, always looking to rip off people and steal their money, giving their country a bad name.

    You should send them a box of about the right size and shape and inside put a note telling them "better luck next time asshole"
