RE: [yamahacs80] Could someone please explain this one for me....?

Hi Tom

 

Walk away for this.

 

You just have to ask yourself the question, who in there right mind would
send their minimoog to a stranger with out payment - if it's too good to be
true then it isn't.

 

It's possible that the seller is part of an organized crime gang and would
have your address and name and possibly you telephone number - that's all
you need to steal your identity.  Stealing identities is the new and biggest
problem in the UK and has some very serious implications for private
individuals so beware.  Alternately, they might just assume you have other
studio equipment and come round to your place and steal it all.

 

So.walk away!

 

Regards

 

Richard

Hi Guys..

Here's one for you all. We all know the ebay scams don't we?

You bid on a Synth, but don't win it - then you get all the scam 
emails telling you they are also *selling* a the same synth at a 
bargain price etc...

I replied to one such email asking if he was in the UK.
(I'd just bid on a Mini Moog but was outbid.)
I told him I would only entertian these two options:

1. I could either go to his place, check out the synth and then pay 
cash before leaving with it.

Or 2. if he would be so kind as to send me the synth I will check it 
out and if it all works and I like it I will send him my payment, 
telling him that he can trust me - I am not a scammer but an honest 
guy etc...

He now emailed me to ask for my address, as he is going to "send me 
the package"...

Something still doesn't seem right about this. Does this guy just 
want my address for some reason? Should I send him my address and 
wait and see if he does send the Mini? Is this a new type of scam 
that I don't know about yet?

I am slightly confused I must say.

Any advice, thoughts would be much appreciated.

Cheers.
TOM
