Default Another ebay chancer

Sold a new blackberry on Tuesday then got a message from the buyer asking for my paypal address, after that their ebay account was closed. So I sent a message telling them not to bother sending any money just incase as I was going to relist it.

This morning got two fake paypal emails which were quite convincing and this one, my reply is at the top..........

Subject: Payment Sent With PayPal via Ebay To Ensure Transaction Safety.

Hi there,

Just sent payment for your item via PayPal as promised. Am really sorry regarding the change in shipment destination as it was last minute decision and i informed PayPal of this change and the provided international address has been verified. To confirm that i have sent payment via PayPal please see the below:

Transaction ID: C840-L006-Q999-*****

International Postage Costs To Nigeria : £40.00

Payment Status: "Pending" until postage is confirmed which is according to PayPal policies in their notifications i received earlier.

POSTAGE ADDRESS:
Mr. Stephen A. Adebanji
23 Medical Road,
Ikeja,
Lagos.
Nigeria.
23401.

Lastly, the name and postage address belongs to my Colleague who works as a Medical Doctor in Nigeria who is currently in need of the item. Please I will like you to proceed with postage arrangements as soon as possible via Royal Mail International Signed For. Reply Promptly.

Best Regards
Lewis Dane

Some of them paypal emails are very convincing, i nearly got done of some twat from nigeria when i 1st started using ebay. The ebay account was registered in the usa and they said they wanted to send the item as a present to someone in the forces stationed over there and it was only when the post office wouldnt send it and they vanished that i knew they were scammers. NEVER send anything until money is in your account when you log in. and NEVER SEND ANYTHING TO FUCKING NIGERIA.
