Can eBay do nothing about all of these bogus listings??


This is an on-going conversation with a scam-artist(more like vandal; artist would be a compliment) on eBay!  Updates will follow...


**********
The bike was listed for $37.00 with free shipping!!  Killer deal right?(Well Duh')  Mommy, Mommy can I borrow $37.00 please?  I had to have this bike for that price, so I started the game.(for me)

~ My first e-mail to the scam-vandal....

I'll take it.

~ My second e-mail and reply to the above....
That all sounds just wonderful Michelle Woodbury.  I thought it was $37.00 though.  That is how the item is listed on eBay.(BUY IT NOW $37.00) Typo maybe?

Also, on the bidding you put FREE SHIPPING ? and now you are charging for shipping? (Don't understand)

I have purchased many high dollar items from eBay, but will NOT give you my user ID as that is not needed.  eBay directly states that you should never give out your user ID for any reason?? Why do you need it again?

Greece, aaagh sounds lovely.... Take your  time I will wait until you get back in the states to complete this transaction.  I am in NO hurrry, but would like to buy your bike!

How many miles does the bike have ? The $3700 one...?

You'd kind of think the scammers would try a new angle...and why are they always in Greece or Italy? Pick another country...come on, stir things up a bit!

Think I'll email ol' Michelle and express some interest...hell, I'll just give her my paypal info so she can start buying stuff for me! Stinkin' scammers...

Updated e-mails.......... Too Much Fun !  

 

Anything yall want to hear from Michelle?  She is going to be so confused by the time this is over.....

~ A reply:
Lee,
I can't get back in to the states until i sell the bike.And i did not stated in my listing free shipping , you confused my listing with other one, i am in Greece and i can prepare everything perfectly here so if you need something email me back, the millage on that bike is 215 on the 2004 model and  1283 on the 2002 model.

~ My response to the above reply:
You can't get back to the states until you sell the bike?  Okay.

I must have confused your listing with another, but to be honest that shpping fee is a little steep.  I don't know if I can afford the bike as well as the shipping.  Could you do some research and see if it would be cheaper if we used like FedEx, UPS, or someone else?  Let me know what you find please....  See, if you were here in the US we could handle this much better.(No Shipping Fees)   When do you plan on getting back in town?


Well, I know that I sure want that bike for $3700.  Could you just take a picture of the speedo, so that I can double check that mileage?  You seem like a very trust-worthy gal, but you know I would hate to be scammed out of my hard earned money.  I cut a lot of yards to save up the $$$$ and I'm only 15.  This will be my first ride!



Hit me back sometime......

ps - do you take personal checks, or is this going to be done via PayPal???  (What's best for you??)
