How does this ever even work?

Manorcourtman · July 26, 2011 10:28AM

Reported............again!

GrumpyEd · July 26, 2011 11:00AM

This is the 3rd time the same scammer has tried this recently, ebay shuts him off and he's trying again.

GrumpyEd · July 26, 2011 11:00AM

oops double posted

coindeuce · July 26, 2011 11:02AM

Reported again.

stealer · July 26, 2011 11:14AM

I like how one of his two positive feedbacks is from another eBay user also with 0 feedback

Holdup, looks like his feedback is an even 0 now

GrumpyEd · July 26, 2011 11:23AM

He must be getting negs as we type.
I just looked and he had 3 FBs, 2 negs and one pos. Giving him a 33% pos FB.

Ebays using glass half full math to call it 33% pos, my math came out with 66% neg

It's a scam, people and hopefully, you already know better.

Stole another picture of a different date than the one yesterday and doubled the price.

Reported to my paypal fraud dept. contact, he's usually pretty quick with these (if he's at work). Also pointed out the scammer keeps coming back with a new user name.

Edited to add:

Heard back from contact on my question about paypal seeing to it that seller can't opening anymore ebay accounts. Paypal contact said "ask ebay." My reply: "He's using paypal and it is fraud. If paypal fraud dept. doesn't care to pursue, neither do I."

OPs link didn't work for me.

E-bay pulled the auction

cheezhed · July 26, 2011 11:35AM

That was quick!

LindeDad · July 26, 2011 11:36AM

Only took about a hour and twenty minutes this time eBay is getting better or we are.

derryb · July 26, 2011 11:39AM

<< <i>E-bay pulled the auction >>

At the request of paypal fraud dept.

morgansforever · July 26, 2011 12:11PM

Good job fellas, he'll be back, and we will NUKE him again.
Asked the seller if he could supply a pic of the slab, no answer.

stealer · July 26, 2011 1:14PM

He sho seems certain it's real

"Awesome! Just get the coin verified, 1000% Authentic! Have ordered more!"

stevek · July 26, 2011 1:32PM

Yes, good job reporting this scammer, and I had seen earlier that a scambuster "bought" one of the coins and left an immediate neg with a warning about this seller, and kudos to that scambuster.

I realize stopping these ebay scammers is sort of like stepping on red ants in your backyard, they do keep coming, but it still does good to step on the ants.

rofl - apparently he doesn't understand the "long con".

Same guy, another scam
