steve said:could someone inform me of these "scams"? how do
they work?
Somebody steals Ebay account. Offers expensive item (laptop,
bike, stereo, etc) at a very good price. Asks to be paid by
Western Union. Item apparently sent, money goes through,
item never arrives, you're out of pocket with no recourse.
Ebay scams are pretty big at the moment - they work in
reverse too.
Quoted message said:oh, and while im at it, if i do come across a bike of that
price on ebay, and i want to buy it, is there any way i
can get my momey back if the bike isnt as was described,
or shown in the photo`s.
That's between you and the seller.
Quoted message said:like for example a cash on delivery type of thing where
the buying can check out the bike first#?
You might want to check out Escrow.
