admin Beware of fake “EBAY” emails.
Because we here at SmartWAHMs use Ebay to buy and sell a variety of items, we are constantly bombarded by scam emails trying to imitate an official notification from Ebay.
These are just scam artists trying to get your personal information with the ultimate goal of cleaning out your bank account or using your credit card information for their evil deeds.
Sometimes these scammers cash in on the holiday seasons in the hopes that inexperienced Internet shoppers will believe their fake emails and click on the links inside them.
Both Ebay and PayPal will head up their real emails with your name… the one you signed up with. Anyone can get your Ebay ID, so just because it shows that… don’t think that you are safe and can click on any links.
NEVER click on a link in any email that you feel is suspicious. You should be able to see the actual URL by doing a mouseover on the link.
FORWARD suspicious emails to Ebay (spoof@ebay.com) or to Paypal (spoof@paypal.com).
Here
is another Ebay scam that is reported to be making the rounds. Scammers are getting the Ebay ID of the second-highest bidder for an auction and then making an offer to that person pretending to be the original seller.
The scam is that the “seller” tells the losing bidder that the winning bidder has failed to pay and that they are offering a “second chance” purchase. Second chance purchases are a legitimate Ebay tool, but beware!
The victim then pays the scammer for the auction, but of course never receives the item. By the time they complain to the real seller, it is too late.. the scammer has their money.
Don’t let your holiday season be ruined scammers! Learn all about Ebay’s safety and security measures here…http://pages.ebay.com/securitycenter/

Some truly great blog posts on this website , thanks for contribution.
Nice post. I learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little something from their store. I’d prefer to use some with the content on my blog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a link on your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
