SHOOTER
I recently placed a bid on an old Brunswick-Balke-Collender poolcue rack being offered on E-Bay. Two full days before the auction even ended I got a phony second chance offer to buy the rack from the "seller". I forwarded the phony offer to E-Bays crack security dept. which did nothing but send me back an e-mail telling me that the offer was a fake.
Not 12 hours later I got another phony second chance offer from a different scammer, and I repeated the above process and also notified the real seller about the fact that his item was being used as bait.
E-Bay apparently does little to track these schmucks down and cause them some real grief. I've only been using E-Bay for 2+ years but it seems like this stuff is happening more and more in the last few months.
I'm fairly certain that most of you are aware of what's going on at E-Bay but just in case 1 or 2 of you aren't, be careful when trying to do business there.
