This is a great eye-opener, I never thought that scamming would be this level, I always thought was a well run tight organisation, how wrong I was!! Thank you for this video, obviously the four dislikers are scammers! When you find an ad like this one do you report it straight away?
Ebay has a great responsibility & opportunity to establish safe transactions with a fair two-way feedback system of transaction reporting. So far they have failed by reasonable standards. Feedback and Paypal policy is exploited by fraudulent buyers to succeed with false "item not received" claims. This happens far too often without proper recognition of and despite proof provided by standard shipping documents. 98% of the time there are no on-line USPS international first class tracking updates.
guys i need your help . Recently i bought smth from ebay , paid for it directly with paypal . I didnt receive any kind of email from the seller for few days so i started sending messages and asking whats going on . Then after few days he replies saying he already shipped the product , though , in my ebay account under the "won/purchased" tab , at "shipped" tap , doesn't show this product as shipped .... so , whats really happened ? Tnx in advance !
ebay is full of scams! People who don't own cars trying to sell them etc. Beware. Go look & get the facts before you bid. If you can't see the vehicle don't even consider bidding on it! Get all the facts FIRST!
beware of fake electronics too,most mp3 players and flash memories sold on ebay are fake,the memory size is fake,you buy a 16 GB pen drive but it won't hold more than 4GB,they can cause data loss and damages to your computer,so please try to check the sellers feedback and all information before buying anything on ebay or anywhere else online,...thanks for the video
Maan all my hopes went down ive been looking on ebay for a car and ive been searching on the internet like crazy about ebay motors if its fake or not but now all my hopes went back down, im scared now lol
How does ebay allow url changing from there auction... Like if i post an auction I have no power to change to url so how do they do that? It's wrong many people could get sucked in by that. Ebay needs to get it's act together I think they would be liable also in the event that someone would purchase from a link given off there site.
usually people will message you in the email saying that they posted the car in craigslist but they will do the transaction on ebay so that you will be under ebays buyer protection. they sell it in a really really cheap price and will entice alot of ebayers
Thanks for posting this. Ive also seen a Corvette scam where there are several different user names selling the same car over & over. A quick look at sold history can find if a cars being resold & doesnt actually exist. The best clue for a scam is a rediculisly low buy it now.
just wanted to say thanks(belated) as around the time of posting this vid by watching it you helped me from being scammed out of £2500... thanks again
I was just scammed $12400 for 2 motorbikes by the same seller but the URL never changed to something wierd. I was told I had $20000 buyer protection but thats only with paypal not with the money transfer I used even though it said I did.
Today I was almost scammed by one of these scammers. I was going to buy a 2007 Honda CBR600RR. For some reason I decided to check youtube lol. sure enough this video saved me $4000. THANKS!!
Sorry, I don't remember. I'm almost sure the member had a 100% positive since I would not buy a bike from someone with less. I have purchased 2 bikes and a SUV off eBay.
That is very helpful and I don't understand why eBay isn't keeping people informed about this stuff. I have had that happen a few times where I was asked to sign in. Thank goodness I didn't. Thank you for keeping us updated. I'll watch that URL
that is crazy
