qualitycards.comI get about 3 dozen of the eBay/Paypal scams a week and lately the PowerSeller ones too! Which struck me as odd, since I'm already one.
I always foward these back to eBay or Paypal, and get the reply they these are spoofed Emails.
How bout eBay & Paypal prosecute these scam artists? As this is pure Fraud. If you went to a neighbors house and bilked them out of $$$, you go to jail. But if you eBay a fake Honus Wagner T206, or sell a Mantle '52 PSA-10 w/ a stolen scan or contact eBay/Paypal members for their login information & credit card info. Nothing happens to the scum. Their account is just cancelled. How bout some severe jail time for fraud? Wouldn't that be the biggest deterent?
If I get several hundred of these scam requests per year as just 1 ebay member. I always wonder how many casual users fall for the scam and end up getting their account hijacked or credit card whacked...jay
