Hi, Just want to let you be aware of a scammer. I had shoes listed on eBay before being emailed by a UK eBay User: ‘cleanerguy61’ , who offered me £40 and £20 postage to post them to his ‘cousin in Nigeria’ I thought little of it at first and ended the listing. I then gave him my email address (to send the money too) but was then emailed by ‘victoriaphilomena1 @ hotmail com’ who gave me the Nigerian address etc to send the shoes too, she said I’d be given the money into my account when I sent the tracking to her - which I did. Then she replied saying the funds have been withdrawn from her account etc and are en route to my PayPal, I then got an email from scammers pretending to be PayPal ‘service @ paypal.com’ saying I need to send Victoria £130 in order to ‘expand’ my PayPal account - I know lol. Then the £190 would be immediately returned. Obviously this is a pathetic attempt of getting money but I wanted to let you users be aware of the Ebayer, the PayPal account & Victoria .. who are all presumably the same person. I feel stupid enough for even going along with it to begin with but the offer for the shoes was good so I went ahead. Fortunately I didn’t even post the shoes, but I still wasted £10 or whatever the postage was, which is a shame.
