Hi there,
I have just experienced the same thing.
I recieved an offical email from ebay saying that the user account seems to be stolen stating the following:
"We recently learned that someone was using an account to bid on or buy items without the account owner's permission ..."
After this the username <removed> emailed me saying that he wants the items sent to the address below and he also stated that he had payed $150 for postage on top of the $350 I had listed for the laptop I was selling. Which sounded a bit strange.
Cole <removed> <removed> Lawanson, Surulere, Lagos, 23401 Nigeria
Straight after that email I got a so called 'confirmation' from paypal with an email extension of @payservics
Believe me, it looked so real at first glimps. These guys are pro's! Do not believe any emails that you get without the proper extension (in this case ebay.com or paypal.com).
I am too waiting for the deposit =D wasn't in a rush to sell it anyway...
