There have been some scams via Ebay and mainly Craigslist but please do your homework prior to bidding and giving out personal information. As a retired LE officer I saw every thing and I just hope that no one from this forum get taken for a ride.
I contacted Ebay and the mentioned above was quickly taken off their site. I wonder how many people have been dooped throughout the years, and how Ebay/PayPal resolved the issues. I had a few transactions via Ebay and Craigslist and was successful but still had in the back of my head to be cautious.
