Re: Interesting e-bay auction
i'll bet he's running the auction under someone else's name, changed the e-mail and will try to collect the money. the buyers will have no recourse with the scammer, only the ebay seller. this scenario would be a little more believable if there was more at stake. i don't know if 20 counts of mail fraud is worth $100. -

Re: Why would my proof 1959 50c be bid up to$98?
I like the birthday present idea. My 60th is coming up (hint). One theory not mentioned is that someone is trying to stick it to you. Your "item description" goes after all kinds of ebay scammer strategies, and maybe somebody doesn't like the cut of your jib. Hope that's not the case. -
Re: collecting
The Chase...the pursuit of the "perfect" card to fill a void. The anticipation...waiting on an auction to close or waiting by the mailbox. I pay more attention to my want list compared to the cards that I own. Lotsa cool people around the hobby too. Beware of the scammers, they can deflate the passion pretty quickly. -
Re: Social experiment: Free Gold Coin(1/10th oz AGE) or Free Candy Bar? What would you pick?
Agree. This is nonsense. Any rational person would think he's a scammer or a criminal. These videos don't prove anything other than people are wary of strangers. You come at me unsolicited on the street with talk about gold or silver, I'll get a good description of you and report you to the police. -
Re: What the F ebay!
Well someone out there figured out how to access his account (smart group) but I am afraid if I do and send myself a message saying that I (the scammer) received the card so I can get a refund that ebay would suspend me for entering a account that is not mine -
Re: Just got scammed
If a scammer wanted to make "homemade" Topps baseball or football packs from that era, opening cheap nonsports packs and taking the gum out would be a good way to get gum that would match the original pack. At that point, what will they do with the opened, gumless nonsports pack? Reseal and sell? Nick -
Re: Dave & Adams are now sealing the older boxes they sell
I think the current prices have taken a lot of people out of the game. That and the tons of fake product floating around. I agree this "sealed box" craze could become a scammers dream come true. Big prices and it could possibly be easier to fake than resealing a rack or cello. -
Re: How Much Is a Counterfeit Worth?
Some of them are pretty good but some are a joke. All of them, you can tell they are fake by tapping them, they don't ring like silver. I think they are just hoping to sell them to noobs who won't know the difference. I report scammers to ebay almost every day. -
Re: Here we go again: EBAY - 1936 "proof set" - someone's going to get killed! (special tri
Years ago proof set scammers would chrome plate business strike coins and sell them to the unknowing as proofs and well...at least they appeared to be a proof and possibly could fool you. There is no excuse here though. It is obvious that these bidders can't even tell the difference between a proof and business strike.
