Begging request on ebay

I know, Microsoft is so helpful. I keep asking them to let me talk to Bill but he's never around. I mean, okay, he doesn't run them anymore but still...
Yeah, I guess he doesn't go to India much
Yeah, DHL has a load of parcels for me as well. I also have various amounts of PPI compensation waiting for me too. I'm waiting until it hits £1m and then I'll collect. Highest so far has only been £6,784.88 (the 88 pence is a big deal!) so some way to go there.
Who needs mse when we have all these piles of cash waiting for us
I haven't been offered any Russian girls though... hmm... that's disappointing. I was offered the once in a lifetime opportunity to invest in some South American adult feature films but that's not quite the same.
You should be disappointed about the Russian girls - they're like the marks and spencers version. Not just any russian girl. These are 21, hot virgins and waiting for you and I think they're all called Nadia or something - I'm just waiting for them all to turn up on our doorstep one day. Can't wait to be honest, I've got piles of washing and could do with getting on with the gardening.
Tesco currently email me a lot to apologise for feeding me horses. Not a scam, as such, but really I don't need to hear from them every other day about the subject.
They're very sorry for feeding you horseys though. Don't worry about the other things they haven't discovered yet.MSE Forum's favourite nutter :T0 -
Ergh, recently i've had people message me asking for me to sell items for less than the auction starting price.
The cheek!
Last weekend i had someone message me within one minute of the auction ending with no bids, asking for me to sell the item to her for less. lol.0 -
I always ignore the begging emails from ebay but I[STRIKE] may[/STRIKE] will use notakid's method next time- I love it!
Off topic but I've just checked my spam folder and you'll never believe it but the FBI have emailed me about the 'complete contract/inheritance overdue funds' which they owe me (3,000.000.00 USD no less!
) I only have to click the link and send them $225 and my passport....
My favourite part of the email is the the contact name is
CONTACT PERSON: PAUL NKOMA.
DHL COURIER EXPRESS
EMAIL ADDRESS: [EMAIL="poulnkoma@datafull.com"]poulnkoma@datafull.com [/EMAIL]
Note the misspelling of the name 'Paul' in the email address? Nice touch
:rotfl:
[EMAIL="poulnkoma@datafull.com"][/EMAIL]They call me Dr Worm... I'm interested in things; I'm not a real doctor but I am a real worm.

The one I received was from the father of a disabled child who would love to have the item I was selling to give to their mother who cared for them for Mothers Day. They asked me to end the listing and sell the item to them for £15. I had the item listed at a starting price of £80.
I replied to the email advising the item for sale was priced already at 1/2 price therefore was not willing to sell it for any less. I reported the reply I got to eBay. The person was incredibly rude, extremely insulting and needed their mouth washed out with a bar of soap when I refused. Shocking behaviour. I wish I hadn't replied
I would now block them so they can't bid on your items and potentially cause you problems.0 -
Oh good point. I hadn't thought of blocking them. The last thing I need is for them to win the auction, and then to be actively trying to find fault to knock down the price.0

Not a scam as such but I've noticed that Sofia on the mature ladies for you pop up on hotmail, who used to be 3 miles away, is now only 2 miles away. I can only think she's coming to get me :eek:Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)

Is she the one with the very short, tight dress and Danny La Rue stance?
Yes, that's her :eek:Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)
