e-bay scams?:

hi all
are there any new e-bay cons?

just been offered a alfa gtv (1998) for £250
i was the lowest bidder and they have offered me a 2nd chance offer?
only bid to £250 then found another car so didnt bother with it !
it sold for £2400

could be real but seem silly seling it for £250 when i was the lowest bidder !
cheers paul

Contact the seller and say you'll go with the cash. If it's genuine, you'll have a cheap motor. If it's a scam, he'll want you to send payment, which won't happen!!

if the winning bidder is trying to contact him, the entire auction is probably a scam!
