NO! I just ordered a new phone today, will be selling my old one on ebay in the next few days...should be fun!

That email alone is basis for reporting, ebay admins see these sorts of scams all the time, they'll know that this is just the first step to the obligatory "I use the Western Union for pretection 100% on buyer seller...." bla bla bla.

Here ya go, here is some info on the matter for you and what to do next;

I would hate to be that one actual Nigerian guy buying a present for someone. No one would take him seriously.

Just got the bogus paypal emails [yawn]

Gonna report this to eBay when I get back after work. This guy best not be able to give me bad rep though !

He won't after Ebay disables his stolen account ;-)

aargh, I'm trying to send eBay the email but it asks for the header / body and I dunno exactly what that means or what I should do

[Kayacterype]

The header is the To, from, subject and all that, IIRC, and the body is the actual message.

ah yes, thought it was like that. Turns out I can also just forward the dodgy emails to spoof@ebay.co.uk too

Ebayers are retarded.
