E-bay Scammers!

[Bogie]

To all fellow Loungers,

There are a group of individuals who are attempting to impersonate the ebay seller Rilico. If you have bid on a past auction and lost, you may receive an email asking that you put down your best offer.

Then they will promise to take you to a transfer 'service' with people working on 'ebay's behalf'. Up until now, I had no idea that Rilico lived in Romania, but according to this email I got, he does. I've send him an email informing him of the situation; so consider this a warning to all you hep cats.

You should report this to ebay security immediately if you have not done so already!!
Email copies of their correspondence to: spoof@ebay.com
There is a rule about soliciting sales outside the auction.

Yes Mike,

Emails to Spoof have already been sent.
I hope they can nail these guys, it really peeves me when internet scammers try and rip someone off.

It becomes really weary that whether online, offline in the mail or on the street there's someone trying to scam you:rage:

I assume you're making a joke, but just to be clear to
those reading this who don't know,
Rilico lives in Central California, as far as I know,
and you are implying that the scammers live in
Romania.

Matei, you cut that out now.

Well, now we have a clue about that Rilico dude! I've watched many of his(?) hats and may have bid on a few, but never won. Advertizes well, attracts a lot of attention.
