DShox Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 i sort of agree with that. there's not reading an advert, and then there is a massive void between that and misrepresenting the good/service on auction. his auction states he is selling a car - he then, within the advert, makes a throw away comment about bidding for a phone number. it aint right and the number of people caught out is testament to this.

lockys96 Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 i just posted this to ebay just thought id let you know this guy is trying to con people out of money, he is listing in car section of ebay, looks like advertising cars, but then he is only giving you a phone number for over £100, not the car, these adverts should not be on here, he doesnt even have the cars, item numbers 4575814033 , 4575812276 , 4575813201 my concern is for other ebay users who are bidding, if you check his profile he has negative feedback from previous auctions he has sold mobile numbers, and mislead people. his ebay name is: helpafriend35 hope u can ban him from ebay, fraud thanks Simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveRex Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 so how the hell does he expect to get anything and how come it was up that long anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Looking at his feedback it's not the first time he's done it. I sent the bloke who was "winning" the Bentley number a message to let him know what was going on... not sure if he got it tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockys96 Posted September 16, 2005 Author Share Posted September 16, 2005 i sent a couple of people messages, got one back, said, "thanks, dickhead" i shant bother next time, i think he was in on it too, false bidding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 i bought an overpriced phone and guy was going on about leaving him good feedback, i wrote to him saying you can stick it in ya ass. is it true you can buy positive feed back. lots of scams you have to watch out for. if you a good seller you will go far.if you offer a bargain then people will soon come back. have you seen all the retracted bids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
