It is too late pulliptears they are all buy it now, so the auctions are finished. It is against ebay rules to contact the sellers trying to warn them as its called auction interference, unless anyone has a spare account they can do it with!

thats why i used my spare account

edited to add, just heard from 2 sellers who were greatful to know and havent lost their phones

He has been a busy boy hasnt he!? Maybe someone should contact his other sellers before its too late...

**edited to add**

I contacted the other 3 sellers and gave them a link to this thread. That way it wont be classed as "interference".

i just contacted everyone on his bidding list too.

There's a simple way to deal with people who send these emails.

Email them a jpg photo of the phone, and a little message to say that if they send you some real money then you will send them a real phone ...
