As I said before The only thing that would any good was to forward
the entire email with all headdress. For tracing
Your original email suggest strongly an invasion type phashing email
And that is all I can say without seeing the original email



So you are saying that Sam is too stupid to read the headers and
check the IP address? You need a glass belly button, and a new tinfoil
hat.

Michael,
You really need to stay out of this conversation altogether...
leave this one to same and I!



You need to learn how to mind your own business. You keep posting the
same crap, over and over. Sam said he fixed the problem, so drop your
BS.

What part of

"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 any email he sent you; he could simply edit a legit email
from ebay if he is a liar) this proves that your 'it was a
fake email that fooled you' theory is wrong."

are you having trouble understanding?

Hi Sam,


Moron.


Unfortunately for you I do understand quite well ( I write Internet security
programs in my spare time ) This is the third time I have heard this story.
In the previous 2 both were Phishing emails sent by Sync-Spoof process.
and it takes a very good eye to tell. It has bin my experience that Ebay
will not admit that things like go on anywhere in the world. How ever
this particular spoof is call the Russian Ebay Con Job. And you have sent me
no information
to the contrary. Thus the conversation must end. I can find no reason to
continue this.It is
very unreasonable sort of thing... Goodbye

Default Sam's eBay Horror Story #1

Jeeze, Sam.. these kinda things will happen to someone, and this time it was
your turn.

It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, asThey say.

One thing you could clear up, and I realize out of the millions(?) of
characters you've typed into the fantastic FAQ & Repair sites, there may be
a few typo errors.. but see the text "spread this tail" in your eBay Horror
Story and determine if that's what you wanted to express, heheh.

Thanks for all of your persistent effort
Cheers,
WB

I have been a member in good standing with eBay since 1999. As
readers
of Sam's Laser FAQ are probably aware, I have acquired a large number

lasers and related items on eBay, most at bargain basement prices.
All
in
all I have been very satisfied with the eBay experience. Until now.

For a blow-by-blow saga of what I'm experiencing now, please go to

I will be updating this as it plays out. I expect the outcome to be
satisfactory, but the route it's taking is like one of those
nightmares
where you're trapped on a 15 dimensional mobius strip.

Comments welcome!
