need Help with eBay????????? - mlgbaby - 04-08-2014 08:39 PM
I just sold an item recently and the winner/buyer of my item sent me this message..
"Hello seller i am the one who just won your item out of eBay please i want you to send me more Photos of this item to my email address now asap ......(phillipnorma yahoo dot com) or you can text me at 978 791 3349. And also i want you to get back to me with your correct PayPal email address,so i can proceed with payment as soon as possible.Regards
Norma"
And I was wonder if you think this is legit, I dont really know how I feel about this. do you think this could be a fraud?
Should I send them information?
The have no feedback and have not sold anything.
What should I do?
Okay, what should I do if they bought it. I havent gave them any information

Start with the obvious.
Area code 987 is Mexico. Did you intend to sell internationally?
Second obvious, eBay offers a "pay now" button in the winning email. NO BUYER EVER NEEDS TO ASK YOU for your "correct email address." Scammers do because they will send an email pretending they are Paypal and that you've been paid when you haven't been.

i would send them the invoice through ebay. dont email them directly with anything
you can also send the extra pics through ebay if you want, but i would tell them no extra pics are available
