I wonder if you could be so kind as to help me ship this item to my Son .It's his birthday and this is his birthday gift. I'm prepared to cover p&p. i'll pay through paypal and i will add $80 for shipping to my son where is on an assigmnet for the british Consulate in Nigeria, I want the item to be shipped to West Africa via USPS Global Express Mail 3-5 Days Delivery. The address of my son where you will ship the item to is below, Mr Olatunji Sunday, Sw9/308a, Railway Line Odo Ona Ibadan Oyo State Nigeria 23402. Thats the address where you will ship the item to and i will get back to you after the payment is made and you can reach me on Pettit FUCK IS ALL I GOTTA SAY 237.50 DOWN THE DRAIN Edited January 9, 2007 by Dusk2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Climber Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 So how does it work? They just never pay you? I've had a few questions from buyers in Nigeria who have asked me to end my auctions early for un realistic amounts of money si I always just ignored them since I knew it was BS. Is this something like that? I don't really get how it works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari-Jess Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Buy a broken PS2, gut it, shit in it a couple of times and seal it up real well. Send that. While I was thinking something along the lines of this, Its nice to see that not only was I the only one, but you were the one to suggest it!

Mendon Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I have heard that a LOT of auctions on eBay for Wii's and PS3's are ending in scams involving Nigeria. If you browse thru the completed auctions for Wii's and PS3's, it appears that the majority of them are being won by people with ZERO (or private) feedback and names ending in digits (like Winston1007). I'd be willing to bet that a lot of these auctions are being screwed around with by scams. Seems there was a post here by someone else who's auction for either a Wii or PS3 ended up with a Nigerian winner. If these scams continue, eBay could really begin to feel the pressure as people are going to be reluctant to list certain items.

Trench Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 If you want to get revenge, just go to Nigeria. You have the address. It´s probably one of those cyber cafe scams that were on the news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Better yet, do what I do -- specifically say in the auction that you will NOT ship to Nigeria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It´s probably one of those cyber cafe scams that were on the news All the scammers in one spot? Man how many packages do you think arrive there in a day. Paypal isn't as foolproof as a phoney money order. Can't you open a new paypal, remove the funds before they try to reverse it?

Dusk2600 Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 I think that ebay should ban Nigeria Period, and from now on ill put that i dont ship to nigeria. I may send him a picture of a ps2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
