Ebay warning

Postby Ivanerrol on Sat Jun 09, 2007 10:16 pm

The following is a scam.

Numerous complaints from the original seller name holder and other bidders to ebay security have had no effect. :twisted:

The listing is still up and has not been removed.

I like how it says that it's a scam at the bottom in questions and people are still asking questions and bidding over it.

No wonder the Nigerians* make money.
