    Exclamation

    There are a lot of low life people out there, that give specific nationalities a really bad name.

    Recently on eBay, my son was almost scammed for £350 when he was trying to sell his PlayStation3. These guys put in bids at the very last second for a high price, they only seem to do it on valuable items. Some how, they hack into peoples eBay accounts, so you think you are dealing with somebody legitimately.

    Then you receive an email allegedly via Paypal, saying you must send the item before they will release the funds!!!

    I don't think so.

    There is a lot to learn on the internet about the scamming that is going on.

    RunningMommy, so pleased you realised it was a scam, you've had enough bad luck in the last 12 months.

    I got one of these notifications from Paypal as well and gave them a call. They apologized and cleared the funds for me and said it shouldn't have happened.
