    Unusual for a con artist to show their mobile number in listings though....
    Can I help?
  • I've just had a look at her completed listings - she must have money to burn cos she has used subtitles on all her listings.

    Yes but once paid for she will claim that there was a mention of sports vouchers in listing,buyer would then have to prove to ebay what she was doing,buyer will lose £15 even if appeal to ebay is successful

    She has just lowered her buy it now to £100,very generous.
  • Also a little dodgy that you have to pay within 24 hours or else relist - a bit harsh don't ya think?!

    edit - just tried the number given and it's a real ringing number

    I'm sure listing them on Ebay must breach the T&Cs on the vouchers? Someone should raise it with Tesco.

    i emailed her again as to why she is not more clear on the listing and that someone could be misled and pays her £180 for these vouchers her reply was
    "are you intrested in these then? and if so how much do you want to pay for these? but not to sound rude but i did pay to get these my self? well let me know cheers"

    The full vocuher T&Cs are here but the salient parts are:

    7. The nominal cash value of each Voucher is 0.001p.
    9. Vouchers are, and will remain at all times, the property of Tesco.
    10. Vouchers may not be transferred between Clubs, organisations or individuals for money or any other non-money consideration.
