xbox 360 Scammers on ebay!!!!

On the topic of eBay and X Box's, check the story on this forum thread!

Any thoughts?!

About anything in particular? Seller scams buyer (albeit in a particularly callous fashion); buyer does a chargeback as they should; PayPal finds in favour of buyer; buyer doesn't get money back. Happens every day.

Ermmm, yep! The reasoning relating to a death that has caused a "delay" perhaps Maybe different for you but the first time I have heard a death used in a X360 scam...

Heh, just got this email thru ;-)

Thank you for your email Mark(?),Jo(?) or Bleugh(?),

I see from your use of capitals, short and succint assumption of my
masterbation habits and your very well designed and informative website that
you are obviously not very enamoured with attempts to scam retards, whether
it be Servis or ebay users.

I couldn't help but laugh at the thought of you furiously setting up a
"scambusting" ebay account.

As you obviously have so much spare time on your hands why don't you try and
track down other ebay accounts that I may or may not have used to make about
5 grand from selling PSP, Playstation, Gamecube and Xbox photo's and boxes
over the past 6 months?

This money which I may or may not have made will be financing a 6 month trip
to Thailand next month, I'll be sure to think about you crusading against
scammers and Servis while lying on the beach.

Best Regards,

Chris

hats off to you all for stoping people losing money on scams. I learnt the hardway and was scammed of only £50 but it was still bad enough.

I had a phone removed by ebay as i cross promoted the item. Being honest i didn't read the rules so my own fault. Was just annoying as the only reason i had done it in the 1st place was cause i had seen it done before. Plus it was annoying they pulled mine but the one below mine was left alone :rant:

well sorry about my lil rant

Just had a look and it seems Jonny boy has done a runner with his money!


Is it me or I have not quite got it. It is sometimes not the scammers who should be placed against the wall, but the fools who easily part with their cash! They do not have pockets, as they burnt them out, as their money was too hot too handle. Greed is the casue celeb for these people!

They are even selling email addresses that contain the words xbox360, can't understand why people buy them!

caitlincutie and 'billyspears' made it into page 33 of the daily express

whats even more annoying is that I messaged the idiot to warn him but he chose to ignore it and bought a photo!

Aaaargh

2 members warned me (on my 'spare id') that I was bidding on a photo, but ebay wouldnt let me send a message in reply as I had a zero feedback.

Would it be appropriate to name and thank them on here? Or should I keep their ID's out of it?
