dunno.. but definately sketchy

10/4/2006 9:22:19 AM

yes...western union transactions are not covered by ebay...send the thread to an ebay representative they will tell you if it is authentic...my roommate tried to buy champions league tickets last year through a similar offer and it was a scam!

10/4/2006 9:28:18 AM

the wording alone screams scam.

10/4/2006 9:55:34 AM

the spelling is horrible and sometimes british (centre for example)

10/4/2006 10:09:59 AM

yeah def. a scam. Whenever Western Union is required, you know it's sketchy.

Oh yeah...and anytime someone demands all that personal info about you...it screams identity theft. Definitely wouldn't do this...

is this a joke or can you really not tell?

eBays buyer protection center???? anytime someone makes up official sounding shit like that u know its a scam.

whatever, western union isn't an escrow service

Quote :

"I WILL NEED THESE DETAILS FOR EBAY SO THEY CAN CONTACT YOU"

hahaha, wtf is that.



and yeah, western union should be pretty obvious. paypal actually works towards shielding buyers/sellers from these scammers...western union doesn't give a shit.

oh and also anytime someone sends a huge email like this (esp when the item is listed on ebay and theres no need for all of these details) its def a scam

10/4/2006 10:45:00 AM

also just look at the guys feedback and selling history:

http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=mkorsi&iid=190037807437&ssPageName=VIP:feedback:2:us

He has some negatives, that should send off the warning bells. click on the "from buyers" link to see what past buyers have said about him.

http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedbackFromBuyers&userid=mkorsi&items=-1&item=190037807437&de=off

then you'll see that hes only sold 3 things before , his other 133 transactions were from buying shit. now if you look at his active items for sale:

http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ25QQsassZmkorsi

all of the sudden hes selling a shitton of tickets...and they all look exactly the same. to make it worse, he's not posting the actually buy-it-now on ebay, hes saying "email him" to buy-it-now which is a violation of ebay rules and unsafe for the guyer since its an off ebay transaction.


oh and then I just noticed this:

OH OK, YOURE SELLING THESE FOR YOUR BOSS THE HUGE FAN BUT YOU'RE SELLING 300 TICKETS FOR NFL/NCAA GAMES ACROSS THE COUNTRY NOW!


so yeah, its a scam.

10/4/2006 10:55:05 AM

10/4/2006 12:22:55 PM

another thing i just noticed, all (300) of his tickets are 50 yard line, first row.

10/4/2006 12:31:20 PM

Somebody needs to report this bastard because I know idiots will buy them.

10/4/2006 12:35:41 PM

definitely a scam

10/4/2006 12:42:19 PM

the UK IS a scam... the UK people have all these michigan ohio state tickets this year for like 80 bucks each, i was interested then came back down to reality... yea fucking right... they lie... they lie i tell you. lies lies lies

10/4/2006 12:47:18 PM

The scammer's auctions have been removed by eBay.

10/4/2006 2:34:56 PM

10/4/2006 5:07:12 PM
