Here is a new twist

This is a pretty good job of a scam of an Airstream:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1963-...09441937QQrdZ1


What gives it away is that the real owner is selling it here:

If you've got big bucks maybe you'd like a 2004 BMW Series 3 for just 12,000.00!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-3...QQcmdZViewItem

These are getting way too easy to find aren't they?

That has to be the same person with the $17K bid on ebay. The phone numbers are the same.

Hey Vintage owners! How'd you like to pull that sparkling beauty with a MINT '59 Cadillac!! It's listed as a '64, described as a '59 -- but it doesn't matter!! It's ONLY $6000 -- buy it now!!

Of course, this is another scam, an obvious one at that -- with two bids!

Maybe you've got a 60's post-Wally AS? How about a '69 Chevy Camaro, just $5000!! Buy-it-now!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevr...QQcmdZViewItem

The BMW, the caddy, the camaro, a lexus, and a lincoln are all listed at multiple price ranges. $100, $179, etc...

If I can find them manually in ten minutes or less, Ebay should be able to deploy a robot that pulls them up before they become visible to anyone. It just shows Ebay is all about money, not a quality service or a quality experience. Hmm... where else might that apply?

Wow, Ebay is ripping these down very quickly after I'm reporting them, so for anyone that wants to see what WAS there (if you're late to the party), I'm attaching a pdf of this one so the link doesn't matter so much...

This is another copy of that '69 Camaro. It's listed multiple times at different pricing levels...

I let the real account holders know about the BMW and Bambi, the Beamer has been yanked, and the Bambi will be soon. The only reason it isn't gone yet, is it also is a real auction running concurrently.

New Tactic on Airstreams

This won't be on for long -- #4609441937.

It's a modified tactic. A buy it now on the Bambi that was listed this week from Frisco.

There are two answers to seller's questions that do the email scam. The "junkmail" and email scams aren't in the body of the listing.

The sleazeball's back.

Question This is all fun, but.....

With almost 4700 views and almost 170 posts, this thread is entertaining...
but does it not make you question ebay as a safe marketplace to buy and sell?

You make think as a Seller that your identity or item you are selling could not be hijacked for scam purposes......

You may think as a Buyer that you are wise enough to avoid being taken by a scammer......

But, since the majority of the interest here is on Airstream, clearly this is a fraction of a single percent of the fraud occurring on a daily basis.....

Subject for a new thread.......

Do YOU feel safe buying on ebay the way things are right now....
Not last week, or last month, or last year.....
Now.

Do YOU feel safe having your bank or credit card information on file with Paypal? (an ebay company)....
