Default Someones about to get rippped off big style

Hi,

Just wandering through ebay and was thinking "ill look at dodgy schemes" and this sad gimp is gonna buy "info on where to get an ipod for £20".

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...category=48451

Somehow I think hes gonna be mighty pissed off.

Yeh - been around for ages. Involves a dude sitting around looking for offers on cheap kit... IF YOU BUY SOMETHING ELSE.

So you probably do get the £20 ipod - but you bought a Mac first off

Considering the person with the highest bid just now has zero feedback, and the person before him had -1 feedback !!! I think its more the seller thats going to get the biggest shock when he tries to get his dosh at the end off it all !!! but yes, know what you mean " theres always one " !!!!

Thumbs up ipod scam

Thank you guy's for the link to this site. I was bidding for one of these and obviously I was really stupid!

I was trying to get my boyfriend a cool present for his birthday (he's always wanted an ipod) and have just lost my job, so cant afford one for him!
Thank you thank you thank you thank you................

Suppose I'll have to rethink what I can get him.........the thought of an ipod for as little as £20 is silly I suppose..........wishfull thinking.

Seriously...........THANK YOU!

I shall be advertising on e-Bay for information on how to find the link that may or may not get you a cheap iPOD - so whoever pays me £200 will get very detailed and highly confidential information on how to type "deals on iPODs" into Google.

Keep it under your hat though. This time next year.....
