SP91011 eBay's Trust and Safety Department (KMM187912463V76284L0KM) (69 AMX scammers)

[<eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, here is the reply from ebay on the fraud auction for the AMX in New 
Mexico, which ebay shut their auction down, but might have been too late, as 
the scammers were only phishing for bidders, then would try to get them to 
send the money by paypal quickly. Hopefully some of the bidders have not 
sent any type of electronic payment!

Subject: RE: SP91011 your recent report to eBay's Trust and Safety 
Department (KMM187912463V76284L0KM)
Thank you for reporting this email that you received.

This email is attempting a sale outside of eBay and appears to be intent
on committing fraud. Only items that are listed in a person's 'My eBay'
page under the "Items I've Won" section are considered to be valid
completed transactions. If a person is not the winning bidder or listed
on the bid history page, then they have not won the item.

It's important to know that items purchased outside of the eBay format
are not eligible for our protective services such as feedback, dispute
resolution, contact information requests and most importantly the Fraud
Protection Program. These services are only available for items that are
listed and purchased on eBay in compliance with our guidelines and
listing policies.

For more information on this policy, please visit the link below:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/solicitation-offsite-sale.html

I have reviewed your report and have taken appropriate action in
accordance with our site policies. Such action may include issuing a
warning, temporary suspension, indefinite suspension or terminating the
membership. Due to privacy concerns, I am not at liberty to discuss the
details of any action taken. I hope you understand this position and
that it assures you that your personal account history will always
remain private.

In addition, we do not recommend the use of instant cash wire transfer
services such as Western Union and MoneyGram, and we ask that users
decline sending payment in cases where these are the only methods of
payment offered by the seller. Generally, if payment is sent using an
instant cash wire transfer service and the item is not delivered as
promised, no recourse is available for recovering funds. In most cases,
an escrow service should be used when purchasing high dollar value
items. More information on the benefits and risks of individual payment
methods can be found at:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/buy/payment.html

If you are ever concerned about an email you receive from eBay or
through the email forwarding system, open a new Web browser, type
www.ebay.com into your browser address field to go directly to the eBay
site. Sign into your account and check My Messages in your my eBay. If
you get an email to your registered eBay email address that looks like
it's from eBay about a problem with your account or requesting personal
information, check My Messages first.   Also, only emails from
registered members will be sent to your My Messages.  If it's not there,
it's a fake email.

Again, thank you for reporting this matter and for your help in keeping
eBay a fun and safe place to trade.

Regards,

Sharla

Dear Customer,
The car is located in Albuqueruqe NM. It has all the papers(complete) as
well as the service book.
  I want this transaction to be smooth enough as I am caught in the
middle of some very important events and have very few time at my
disposal. The car is in perfect condition, no scratches, no special
marks, no need for additional repairs what so ever. I am the first owner
of the car and it has no accident or any engine problem.
  The price is $4,500 including shipping costs anywhere in the
continental US. There are no other costs regarding this transaction.
Now, in order to be able to buy it please let me know if you have any
negative feedback and, if this is the case, for what reason. I apologize
for asking for such information but I need to be sure.
Please also provide me with the following details necessary to take a
decision:
-your full name and addr! ess for shipping
-your ph#
Regarding payment I am aware of the buyer's protection and we will use
eBay Motors secure payments which will hold the payment until the buyer
receives the car. To complete payment the you must have cash available.
If I receive the requested information you will be informed by eBay
during the next 12-24 hours.
 Thank you
   Helen Dansro
