Nos, The other bidders that you warned may think you are just trying to get them to pull there bid so that you can win the item at a lower bid.

Hmmmm, bigboober's bids were cancelled because of zero feedback, but others with zero are still there. Seller is definitely no dummy.

The scammer is most definitely no dummy-my theory is that he's one of the scammers behind the ebay phishing that involved an exploit of ebay's own front page. He has a very complex setup going here. Bollocks999 has got to be a warning that it's a scam that the scammer has missed.<br /><br />The evinrude now has had 4 bidders cancelled (apart from me-I bid and cancelled as a warning to others)

Guess what-I've just been contacted by someone (who I can't name for legal reasons) who has the scammers home details. He's asked me to publish them.<br /><br />His details are below...<br /><br /><br />First Name:Matthew <br />Last Name:Forssel <br />Street:Via Ghinossa #6 <br />City:Rome <br />Zip Code:00133 <br />Country:Italy <br />Email: Importavice@yahoo.com <br /><br />Perhaps you and your friends could drop him a line.<br /><br />Of course, now his email addy is public in its full form then he's gonna get all sorts of offers from other scammers.... tee hee

Re: Current Ebay Outboard scam active NOW in UK- UK buyers take note!

I wonder why he didn't answer my question? it only went something like this.....<br /><br /><br />how come the "photo's" you've got are the same as the one one on this web site? <br /><br /> http://www.smalloutboards.com/j5598.htm <br /><br />it looks like you just cut the copyright info off from the bottom of the pics. <br /><br />in fact, everything, including your item description has been cut and pasted from this web site.<br /><br /><br /> :p

actually, he didn't cut the copywrite info off-that was added by the site owner during the auctio after he was told his descriptions and photos were being used.

Re: Current Ebay Outboard scam active NOW in UK- UK buyers take note!

This is the reponse I got :<br /><br />Hello, have you ever had a look at my payment instructions? Well, I think I made it quite clear, the item will not be released, until full payment is made, so your agent cannot pick up it till funds have cleared in my account. My banking details:<br />Bank: Woolwich<br />name: Mr. Aleksandras kucinskas<br />sort code: 10-80-02<br />account number: 62882934

wildbilly,<br /><br />You should e-mail back and say you keep trying but the account must be wrong. Anything to make this sucker work harder.<br /><br />Then you could say something like "I give up I'll just bring you cash, let me know how to get there". Bunch of stupid stuff like that.<br /><br />BTW, what's the item number of the one you won. I wanted to take another peek.
