This guy is trying the second chance EBAY scam on a set that I was bidding on. The scam where they send you an email about the winning bidder renegging and they will sell it to you. In this case, I know the winning bidder and he completed the sale.
The scammer is asking me to send Western Union (of course)
This is the name and address that he is giving:
Mark Fenster
23 Church Street
London, E78PQ
United Kingdom
He has not provided a phone number.
Do you have any reccommendations on how to nail this loser?
Regards,
Alan

Did the winning bidder receive his set yet? If so, does the seller have a second set available? The seller may have two sets. If not, report him for Internet Fraud.
This is a graded set (1 of 1).
I know the winning bidder.
The scam artist merely contacted the losing bidders with the "Winning bidder renegged" message.

Ditto!!!

I don't think the seller is the scammer. Also I'm guessing acowa wants to put a little more hurt to the loser than just getting an Ebay account (which is no doubt hijacked) suspended to the loser.
