Too good to be true?


Too good to be true?

You know the saying: If it looks to good to be true, it ussually is.
Look at this site & let me know what you think?

I'm 90% sure it's a scam, but I like staying optimistic!

Anyone used them in the past?

It's listed on several ebay blogs as being a scam site. One person reports being ripped off for $1000. I would stay away from them...

Plus one good indicator is their contact email is a hotmail address. A real business would have a paid for email account, not a free account...

Yeah I have seen several reports on this site recently.They have been messaging members of ebay privately and scamming them. I would definately agree, they should be avoided.

I agree, was just being optimistic here.
Don't know how people get scammed so easily these days. If you're not sure, use a great forum this to do some research etc... With the www you have so much resources to work from.

Thanx

They have emailed me twice when I had a laptop for sale on ebay. They wanted me to contact them for potential business relations. I ignored the requests. Any website that contacts ebay sellers using the ploy of asking questions about the item cannot be trusted or legit.

I think its that people want to make money so badly that they dont sit to think, Hey this seems a little too good of a price. So they send thier money in with the hopes of getting product a hundred or more cheaper then its wholesale value.


Its human nature. Sometimes we do stupid things. And sometimes alot of us do stupid things. :D
