Hi there. I was looking at buying a jersey off ebay and the seller takes paypal, credit cards, or checks. If you use a credit card you need to call a phone number. My question is has anybody ever did this before? The seller has 99.9% feedback. I just don't like giving my cc number to just anybody. I tried to google their user name but didn't come up with anything other than the items they are listing on ebay. Any help would be much appriecated. Thanks.

    It's probably 99 % fine.

    Do you ever hand your credit card to some crackho waitress in a resturant and let her walk away with it for awhile?

    Now why would anyone do something as foolish as that?!?

    That would be some fool, I tell you.

    A foolish fool would do something like that.

    I have done it dozens of times, if I get an auction that takes credit cards, besides Paypal, I always ask for a phone number then I call and give them all my info. To me, there are a couple of benefits, first, you know they immediately receive the payment and shipping is usually faster and second, some of these guys are really nice, you can actually have a conversation with them and I've had a few ask about other interests and if I was looking for anything in particular.

    There's HUGE money being made these days
    scaring the crap out of people so they'll buy identity theft insurance and a bunch of other garbage they don't need.

    Blah blah blah ...

    We only discuss the scammers here.
