Don't let it bother you; it is just human nature. We judge things
by our own experiences. If, say, 90% of ebay customers have no
problems and 10% get screwed, those in the 90% naturally tend to
dismiss claims by the 10%. Your story is credible and matches the
stories told by others in similar situations.

There you go again sorry no Sam I repeat You did not send
the original emails so I cant judge if it is real or not...
you really need to reconsider what you are saying

No I don't. *You* do. He clearly stated "The letter came via
the ebay internal mail system as well as to my email address."
Unless he is just a total liar (and if he is you would be stupid
to trust any copy of an email he sent you; he could simply edit
a legit email from ebay if he is a liar) that proves that your
"it was a fake email that fooled you" theory is wrong.

It would be refreshing if you were to admit that you were wrong,
but this being the Internet I won't hold my breath.


Also, anyone who knew Sam's pedigree on here, would be extremely
reluctant to believe that he would be deliberately lying over something
like this, for whatever unfathomable reasons ... :-(

Sorry Arfa,
This is a conversation that should have stayed in private channels
and has nothing to do with his pedigree his original message suggest
strongly
that it was a phishing message as the format displayed was wrong, Also
this kind of message also suggest that it was intended to become the
point of
reception of a bad virus or worse. But he would not send the original
message
so I can do nothing to help. ( He ask for my help then refused it when
it was offered )

P.S. BTW I am willing to put Sam's pedigree to the teat but he does not
sound willing...


Well, typo aside, I'm not sure exactly what that means. Sam has posted on
Usenet, and spent enough of his own time in what has always appeared to be
a selfless manner to me, for him to not need to qualify his pedigree
further to you, or any of us. Perhaps it's just time to agree to differ.
You think he was duped, and he doesn't. His account is now working again,
and everything in the garden is rosy. Not worth falling out over. End of ?

I have decided to answer all of those posts at once,

First I am in this thread because I was asked ( Sam called for public help )
second No I am not being rude ( Thank you ).
Third In order to do any good Sam would have to send the original email to
me.
Fourth Frankly I have given up trying, To me it looks like Sam does not want
the help!

Well Sam,Me, Whoever you are today...
