In Reply to: A new and clever ebay / paypal scam - be careful!! posted by Barry Kohan on February 3, 2006 at 15:38:09:
except, instead of an inquiry, the guy said he had tried to PAY me (for something I wasn't selling) and the payment had come back. It was Ebay UK as well. The guys moniker was legit on Ebay UK too, except he had recently discontinued membership.Is that was these scammers do - wait for someone to resign and then hijack or - did the guy perhaps resign because he had been hijacked.
Anyway - no harm came from it.
