Thanks Denni Click here to read more about these kind of scams. Remember: DO NOT do business with anyone who offers to send you payment for a higher amount than your selling price with the understanding that you'll send back the balance. Be suspicious of anyone claiming to be acting on behalf of a "client" or another "customer". Be suspicious of anyone claiming to be from Nigeria or West Africa If you agree to accept a check payment, then do not send anything, gear or "change" before the check cleared. And be careful, if you manage to clear a fraudulent check then you may be liable for the damages if the bank finds out later. Make sure your bank authenticates the check. If it sounds to good to be true, then it probably is.This username has been disabled.Safe swoops Sangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hchunter614 0 #4 August 20, 2007 I posted a suggestion in the Suggestions and Feedback forum suggesting that they implement blacklisting email addresses that can be used to register a new account. This would at least make it more effort for crookman01@yahoo.com to register because he'd have to come up with a new email address each time. Or we could just add his email address to every known porn/spam mailing list on the net. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
