Oh boy oh boy i hate them so much.

I listed a T610 last week with a Buy It Now and a scum bag from USA going a a "business" trip to SE Asia bought it. The scum bag paid by PayPal but would not give me money for P+P so i held for a while until she (scum) would pay it. She kept saying once i had posted the parcel and gave her tracking numbers she would pay the postage. I would not allow this scum to do that. Then i got an email from eBay and PayPal saying the credit card used was fraudulant. I was so glad i had not posted the Phone away.

Anyway i went to leave feedback to her and saw that she had also bought a T610 from another person at the same time. I contacted that person and she had already sent the phone away before eBay got in touch. She told me she had contacted the police in USA and Indonesia to hunt the bitch down.

I hope to god that she gets what she deserves!


Then i relisted my phone last week and to my surprise another scum bag from USA going on a "business" trip had emailed me about bidding. It was nearly the same story but a differnt asian town. I emailed back saying "no your bid is not welcome and i will not accept it". To my surprise that scum had even put a bid in. I have no cancelled it.

I HATE THOSE TIME WATSING SCUM BAGS

anyone else had much trouble like this from eBay?

Next time i list something with a high price i will try and remeber to not accept PayPal so i cannot ever be caught.

Signing off,
a very angry lad

I have been lucky so far but have been careful with selling phones. A couple of times I get emails from bidders in Indonesia but being wise to them I ask them where they are and when they say Singapore or somewhere else and my email tracking service confirms they are in Indonesia then I know they are fraudulent right away and so dissalow any bids they offer.

fingers crossed I can always catch them in the future too!

@miss uk -
i think i am going to have to start that. Its just i think, "its a bigger market so i might get a better price"

I would have been realy mad if i had lost my t610

It is a shame that people feel the need to con honest people out of money and goods, I've always been careful on ebay and take user ratings into account, but con artists like this will force everyone into being over cautious which is a good and bad thing.

Listen for anyone who runs into someone like this is to go to www.ebayscum.com and post a message explaining who the scum was and what they did.... this will quickly become the most popular way to find out what kind of "scum" can be found on ebay and help others avoid dealing with them
