yeah the auction hasnt even ended, and he supposedly sent me 370 dollars (70 for shipping 300 for item) for an ipod that costs 250 new

 

his address is somewhere in nigera and all the email address are in the email are from emailaccount.com

 

on top of that the "paypal" email came from services@paypalinfo.com which makes NO sense

 

flock this guy im not sending crap

Thanks for the help, i contacted ebay and paypal about it and it was indeed a scam, the user is being investigated or something now

 

that pisses me off that the first time i try to sell something on ebay someone tries to rip me off >_<

 

whatever though at least i didnt enter any account info or anything and his attempt failed. I basically emailed him saying that i got a bunch of fake emails and im not sending crap until i receive a real payment

You didn't realize that was a 100% scam from the beginning? Man, no wonder those guys are successful. People are saaps. :rolleyes:

 

NIGERIA = SCAM. Always. flock the legit people who ebay from Nigeria. They need to move to a better country. I will not even respond to anyone if they mention Nigeria.

well i recognized it as a scam, but i figured id go along with it for awhile in case it wasnt

 

The second he said he wanted to pay with not traditional standards all kind of red flags went off, but in hopes of maybe getting 370 dollars i went along with it for as long as possible, it didnt surprise me when it turned out to be a scam though
