I recently had a scam where somebody user my user ID sell nonexeistent merch.Like an idiot I had my user password and ID be the same (must have been not thinking when I set up account).Anyway somebody says he's "chazzbo" and sells 4 Playstations for $500 a whack.Only one of the 4 folks fell for it as they say that in past I was in western mass from my ads and then I moved to POLAND?!?Anyway this creep isisted that people only send him cash wired through Westerm Union.Feel bad for the guy who got stung.I wish I had used ebay while it was going on to see that "I" was selling something but ddidn't catch it in time.And my guess is ebay won't back this guy who lost out for mor than $100 or maybe $200 but certainly not $500.As always Caveat Emptor.
Another Scam on E Bay
I bought a pair of Polk fx 1000 speakers from a company in California off of EBay, they were advertised as being new with a 5 year waranty, upon receiving them, they were obviously not new, also with a broken dipole switch and stripped threads on the bidding post, I called Polk and they said that the seller was not a authorized dealer and that there was no waranty, luckily my credit card company has put a hold on the charge, after that , the conpany contacted me and offered to replace speakers if I filed a claim for shipping damage against ups, I told them that the speakers were not damaged by ups, and would not participate in fraud against ups, at that point they hung up on me, this company has many ads for polk speakers on ebay, before you buy ask for sereial numbers and check with polk !
