  Got a couple yesterday. The funny thing is one came to an email address I've never used for Ebay.

  I like to fill in the password and username with an unkind message to the scammers.

  I've always just deleted them. I think I'll have a little more fun now. Thanks for the idea.

  If I'm in the mood, I'll fill them out with fake information that hopefully is enticing enough to get the scammers to waste time trying to crack the (non-existent) account.
  
  I use usernames like diamond-importers-ltd, raregemseller, per4mancecars, etc.

  New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
