Scammers and eBay
I purchased an item on eBay today. Shortly after the item ended (which I won), I get an email from a googlemail.com address. I’m a little suspicious since the title of the email is: Don’t Pay For My Item,Please Read This Email – Item# XXXX. I figure whatever and I read it. The contents are [...]
