Gilbert Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 It's seems lately I've been bombarded with bogus ebay emails. The subject typically contains "Question From Ebay Member". The questions range from "DO YOU TAKE PAYPAL" to "DO YOU SHIP OVERSEAS", etc., etc.. One creative little prickk sent one that was a treatening message, telling me that he would file a complaint with ebay, because I had contacted a potential buyer(s) that was bidding on one of his item(s). Be very careful guys, there are just too many scumbags out there trying to get ahead the easy way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3dzapper Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 They link back to a phony eBay sign in screen. When you "sign in" you have given them your eBay identity for their nefarious use. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 I don't understand how these are scams. If you reply to these unsolicited contacts you could jeopardize your eBay account, your email and /or your computer. If you ignore them you can't be scammed.
