Jeez, we could start our own detective agency

[misterpink]

Wow - very impressed by all this, good going everyone.

[psychlist]

So where is the best place to get that 52cm Cannondale R1000 triple in black for Mrs Psy?

[Iconic944ss]

Probably NOT Ebay - try Edinburgh bicycles or mootch on http://www.bikemagic.com

Antoyne & Rally.....

Excellent work alround guys - my next move was to try and hunt down who hosted the site and get em kicked off if possible...

You read my mind

Cheers - Frank

this scamming lark is getting huge

its ok for us cos we've seen this sort of thing a lot recently but its easy to see how someone new to ebay (or similar) could get duped by this



my wife had a transaction on her card for some in cartridges which she didnt buy. we got the delivery address from the cartridge suppliers for an office in the city. i picked her up from work & called in this office to see what was going on.
i took in a cardboard box & clipboard & pen with me to look like a courier & asked the security gaurd where i could find this bloke from this company.
he told me the person & company didnt exist. for all i know it coud've been him behind it!

i think the people involved in this kind of fraud are theiving scum, whats wrong with them? do they think they're too good to get up & go to work for a living like the rest of us?
