Re: eBay Scam Advice
With English that bad and the name "Sandra Brooker" I would think that could be nothing but a scam.
Report them to ebay and they'll stop their account. Unfortunatly they can't stop them signing up again using another name, etc...

Exactly! I checked the users feedback before anything else....and yup - you got it - no feedback and they had signed up today with a new account!

Re: eBay Scam Advice
well done Lee - avoid shipping outside of the UK, I've seen this before on ebay, ******s asking to skip to africa and adding emotional blackmail on the shipping urgency by talking about birthdays etc. I've reported bucket loads of hijacked accounts in the last 7 days.
