afternoon all, just too make you all aware, someone last night hacked our works ebay account between 5pm and 8am this morning selling iphones at £350 pounds each when we opened the account up as we do every morning as we have an online store we were shocked that the amount we had been paid over night was almost £300.000 but the money had been transfered too another paypal account and have had people calling all day asking where the advert had gone and why we had taken it off, and offering us there credit card details
so just a word of warning. i replied too the the guys personall email address asking if i could buy a phone from him, this was the responce i got:

Hello Jones ,
Sorry for the delay but I have too many customers. I hope you understand and accept my apologize for that .
The phones are original , brand new and factory unlocked, in original boxes , never opened or used with all the accessories and are covered by 1 international year warranty ( Apple Care ) . The phones can be used in all networks without any problem ...
The price for :
1 x BRAND NEW APPLE IPHONE 4S 64GB = £350 GBP
3 x BRAND NEW APPLE IPHONE 4S 64GB = £800 GBP
5 x BRAND NEW APPLE IPHONE 4S 64GB = £1,100 GBP
10 x BRAND NEW APPLE IPHONE 4S 64GB= £1,850 GBP
*Shipping is for free (included in the prices).
Let me know if you have more questions and if you are still interested to make any deal?
By the way, where are u located and where u want to send you the package ?!
How many units you want to buy ?
Waiting your reply ...
Thanks!

Mugs! Who on this planet wouldn't be sceptical about a brand new 64gb 4S for £350.

If it looks too good to be true it probably is

3 people each purchased 1000 phones?

Hmmm that looks more like money laundering than scamming IMO.

Get onto the serious fraud office.

Ali OT but like your sig line, that is the Sisters of Mercy isnt it ?

This is an on-going scam - I came across it last year (it was iphone 4 then). Ebay are pretty quick to take the listing down and as long as people have used paypal they are OK. The ones who get caught are the ones who contact him 'outside' of Ebay (the listing usually ask to be contacted by email for price details .......)

Speaking of phones I had the strangest dream the other night.

I dreamed I sold my smallish HTC wildifire S, a bought another Android phone but the screen and phone was about four times bigger. This new phone was awesome for surfing the net and stuff, had a brilliant screen, but if I put it in my rear pocket it would only go about half way in and the rest would stick out. I was concerned about the size of it and how stupid it looked being unable to put it in my pocket properly. I wonder if this represented some phallic anxiety?

It could just be as simple as someone installing a key logger on the pc that is used to access both ebay and paypal to grab the passwords....
