OMG, too funny!

We are definitely up to $10! Maybe even $10.49.

Do I hear $10.50? $10.50 for this tale of caution and woe. $10.50 for all our loss of innocence and trust of TE gals. (hey, maybe she was a guy?).

Sorry, I can't say $10.50 until I get some more one-liners.

I can't imagine that she would come back here after this thread, unless she changed her user id.

How do you know it was a "she"??

I'm always suspicious when I see a FS from someone I've never seen on the board before. Sorry you were scammed.

Just a little warning of a scam that happened to us this week. A couple of charges came through our bank account--on first look you wouldn't notice them since they were both less than $11, but I keep a tight watch and I didn't recognize them. But look out for these charges: to DGEN for 8.99 and to MV Web Templates for around $10.65 (sometimes it's $12.99).

Total scam and there's no way to tell how they got my CC number. Big hassle getting a new card. They've hit thousands of people, just judging from the number of posts on a few 800# message boards There is no common thread. I personally think it's a leak in paypal, but I would love to be corrected.

So, be careful out there!

She had posted on here several times. I read her posts and it seemed okay. She had also sold once before on TE. Unless her first name was an alias, it was a she. Glad you caught those charges right away! I always check my accounts too.

So why can't you out her? I see nothing wrong with posting the identity. I will add that while it is a shame when this happens, this is the WWW so we can't restrict who visits here. I have bought and sold on TE, but as others have said, only to folks I feel I have gotten to know, or in one case it was a new poster so I asked her to email me her ebay user ID so I could check her feedback and I did the same. But, we all must know that it is riskier to buy out of paypal. I also make a point of publicly thanking someone that I bought from on TE, or giving the names of others I have sold to on TE, if the purchaser wants to check up on me.

urk, there were enough clues that I couldn't help myself.....
I know who it was

[KnottedYet]

Do tell!!!!! (pm to protect the guilty)

[Trek420]

Is it gossip if it's pm'd? And what was the clue? Who's been AWOL since November? Who lives on a mountain with a gravel road? Who leaves their computer in the trunk?
