Hello

I was just selling a product via ebay when a customer contacted me and imidiatelly send me money which I didnt ask him to do because I had a couple of questions... 

Then I got a couple of email into my spam which you can check here :

Do you REALLY think that email is from paypal, sorry but it is so badly written with such very bad grammar it is laughable.

And do you REALLY think that a government agency would be interested in your little sale??

And yes its a scam  >> read this.

 A TYPICAL PAYPAL SCAM.

They encourage you to use paypal and often ask you to send the item as a gift to a relative somewhere often Nigeria.

You will get/got a "fake" email that looks as though it is from paypal.....it isn't.

It will say the buyer has paid ...you won't have been paid.

They will tell you that the payment is released when you provide paypal with a tracking/shipping number......this won't happen.

They also threaten legal action...have a laugh at that one and ignore it as its rubbish.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send trackable, they advise it for seller protection etc but it is not compulsory.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send an item before the payment is showing in your paypal account.

Delete any emails and ignore the scammers who use hijacked ebay accounts BUT NEVER complete ebay checkout.
