  • Is it just me or does the "C" in America look funky on this?

    Pics are pretty dark and I couldn't figure out what the hell the seller was trying to say but I hope that coin is real for the $2k it went for.

    Hell, I don't need to exercise.....I get enough just pushing my luck.

    Doesn't really matter. This seller steals other auctions pics and scams the sales. The buyer(s) will never get anything from this chump.


    So far we have seen him at at least 2 previous seller i.d. 's, NARU'D.


  • I just feel sorry for the buyers.....all that money for nothing......
    I have been burn't before on some deals, but nothing like this kind of money.

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I can't help this time - my Ebay account (under which I won scam auctions) recently got Naru'd image

    I'm waiting to hear back from Ebay to see if I can get it reinstated.

    They guy who bought it has no intention of paying the cheeseball! They are building a file with owners of the coins!

    FYI, The ebay scum from China is currently operating under the new seller name victoria_hongkong.image
    He is using the same M.O. as the last few times - stealing coin images from other current auctions and listing them in his fraudulent ads for unsuspecting ebays to buy and get ripped off.

    Compare his latest scam listings for these current auctions:

    China scum listing 3774483711 against legitimate item 3949906747 - 1908 $20 St Gaudens Gold Eagle NGC MS-65.
    China scum listing 3774664560 against legitimate item 3950089350 - 1889-CC Morgan Dollar ANACS EF-40
    China scum listing 3774662927 against legitimate item 3950089416 - 1895-O Morgan Dollar NTC MS-64
    China scum listing 3774482260 against legitimate item 3950325224 - 1945 WTC 9-11 Gold Peso PCGS

    His sales end within the next two days for the above listings.

    I believe he is currently operating several stores under different ebay names. I've reported him to Ebay Security/IFFCFBI but he continues to sell and scam!!

    Coinguy1 got beat up from eBay fighting this scammer. The best course of action is to try to "Contact Member" and warn them not to pay after the auction ...and report to fraud to eBay Security/IFFCFBI.gov.

    UPDATE

    I sent warnings to high bidders with most replying back except 1. China scum ended one item early for to accept high bidders price. One item 3774482260 can no longer be found. Maybe e-Bay pulled auction. High bidder abbeyupnorth already responded back earlier he would not pay. Ebayer wanabpro31 bidding on last two items did not respond back to warnings sent. I placed bid (T8knudn2) but his bids are higher on both items. COULD WNABPRO31 BE ONE OF US? IF SO PLEASE PM ME SO I CAN RELAX!!

    China_olympiad168 from last weekend is still sending e-mails wanting me to pay him. I still put him off waiting on the $29K for three of his illegal transactions I "won". May send bogus $25K bills for payment soon!!

    If I only had a dollar for every VAM I have...err...nevermind...I do!! image

    Thanks for the update Terry.What can Ebay do to someone in China for fraud! Can he just keep doing this without any consequences???It frightens me to know that If this one guy can do this and scam $$$$ thousands ,who knows maybe to raise money for some evil purpose,like a terrorist plot.Maybe Interpol with the help of FBI can nail this scumbag !!!image
