Fraudulent '68 Listing on Ebay

[ZombieAttack]

Can you say scam?

2008 GIBSON LES PAUL CUSTOM 68 HISTORIC VOS?? ~ RARE! - eBay (item 140304105086 end time Feb-28-09 22:17:35 PST)

After you look at the auction - click on view sellers other items - or go to the store. It looks like fraud on a grand scale!

Yep ignorant bowhuntersupplystore must have fallen for a phishing scam. His account is not under his control. There are a slew of Les Pauls being listed for the same BIN and 3rd party email. This happens about every week with Les Pauls. Organized crime....probably Russian or Mid Eastern. They are so obvious, I cannot imagine anyone falling for it. Some hijackers are much more sophisitcated than these goofballs.

We could post these every week forever....it is getting rather redundant.

haha I live within an hours drive of Bayshore - where the seller is from... I emailed him to see if I could drive to him and play the axe. If he lets me, that's a mighty fine price for a Custom.. too bad it's bull

Just remember the Ebay ID has nothing to do with this scam, his account has been hijacked.

The real owner of the account has confirmed it via email. It's all fraudulent. Hopefully eBay will act quickly before too many people get ripped off.

Did you tell him what a dip-shit he was for falling for the phishing scam, clicking on the link and giving up his personal information, despite all the warnings ebay gives you? If it were not for suckers like him, there would be little to nil hijacked accounts. And with his experience, you would think he would be more savy.
