Hey guys. No, this thread is far from over! It looks like I'm seling something else! (Other seller transactions from escrow site) Transaction details These are the details for transaction with ID 1399872290 Item name: Amanda Real Doll Terms Details Seller username mynameisjeffharris Buyer username Euro Shipping with FedEx Who pays fee Buyer Who pays shipping Buyer Inspection period 8 Item price 3500 USD Quantity 1 Escrow fee 0 from 42 USD Shipping cost 143 Total cost to Seller 0 Total cost to Buyer 3685 Description slightly used HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I encourage you all add many many things like this to my account on his escrow site!!! Add things, and I will tell him I am going to use his preferred escrow service for my other auctions! I wasn't able to email him yesterday, so no new update from him. However, I will compose my email message as I type this reply. I will send it when i get home. Hello sir! Please let me thank you again for being so patient with me! It is too bad we are settling outside of ebay, because I was going to leave you "EXCELENT EBAYER!!!!!11 A++++++++== WOULD SELL TO ANYTIME" I guess it is ok though becaue I would have to give them an extra $300 when the auction was over. I logged onto your preferred escrow site and saw our transaction. I did not see any place to accept it though! Did I just not see it? Sorry I am new at this. Where do I go to say OK? Where on the site does it say where to ship it to! I am very eager to get this thing shipped so I can hurry up and start the process to get my money! Once I ok our transaction does it tell me where to ship the laptop? I am very positive you will be satisfied with the laptop. One other thing, You seemed to confident about this escrow service, that I think I am going to use it myself for my other transactions. Is that ok? I will be buying and selling other laptops and would like the security. I will be buying many things and will need a escrow service with a strong digital defense to send my money to so I don't get ripped off. Thanks again! Jeff I think the next email I will let him know about someone else who has offered more for the laptop. I think I will tell him that the other person wants to settle outside of ebay, with a personal escrow service too! Perhaps I can get him to call the other guy a scammer! I should have his reply tomorrow morning.

Halvor.. you seem to have a pretty good point. However, in Europe (at least in Germany) lunch breaks are between 12 and 2 in the afternoon. I agree with the above poster. These fakes are funny.. but they might ruin the thread or even expose this too early as a plot to fight back teh scammer.

Get a load of this! I reported this guy's email and fake site to ebay- Told him everyting we discovered! Fake everything! And I get this! Hello, Thank you for writing to eBay's Customer Support with your concerns. My name is John and I appreciate the chance to answer your question. I'm happy to assist you further. An Escrow service allows the buyer to send their money to the Escrow Company, and the Seller then ships the item to the Buyer. Once the Buyer approves the item the Escrow service then pays the Seller. eBay recommends escrow for transactions over $500.00. The Escrow service affiliated with eBay is called Escrow.com. eBay encourages members to take advantage of the assurance that escrow services can provide. For more information on escrow, please see the following eBay page: http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/escrow.html I wish you the best with your future transactions. Regards, John W. S. eBay Customer Support WELL THANK YOU JOHN! MY CUP RUNETH OVER! Hmm. . . someone is reporting an obvious scam and fake escrow site. Obviously he has no idea what escrow is. BETTER SCHOOL HIM!

I replied to that ebay email Hi John, Not to be rude, but I know quite well what escrow is. I also happen to know that this is an obvious scam attempt. Had you actually read the form I filled out on your site, and not replied with the canned response: Escrow 101, you would notice that I did not ask what escrow was. I was reporting someone wants to settle the sale outside of ebay, through an escrow site he referred me to. A site that claims to be a VeriSign secure site, but then you click the logo, he is hosting the VeriSign page -the page that should take you to the verisign site. This is a text book rip off. This can't be your answer to everyone who reports these types of things can it? I really think you should take some action against this person. Jeff

I would stop or remove any fake auctions on the escrow site until we get the last reply from the guy with at least a shipping address. Also once he gets that why not create our own accounts on the site? Does it take a CC or something? What will they think when 400 people sign up on the site to escrow their real dolls and stored bodily fluids? Edit: Forgot, I had a question from earlier on. Someone mentioned something like lsass in reference to goons loving with scammers. I didnt see anything in dictionary, can anyone explain or point me to a thread?

Is it maybe possible to find out his real IP by including an image in an email to him then finding out what IPs have accessed it. That way you could trace it and find out where they may be. I knocked up a little php script where if you to go to http://www.vdhri.net/images/mrgreen.gif it attempts to log your IP in this text file: http://www.vdhri.net/images/ips.txt. I tested including it in an email to myself and that got my ip (with the www.eml.cc/... referer) when i viewed it on webmail. Another way that comes to mind would be to look at server logs. Don't know if it would be any use, and i might've hosed up while making it, but i was bored and it's an idea i guess.

Okay detectives!#!! First off, it is not the professor.. you can fill in any name and register a loving domain. I'm sure someone who went through the effort of creating a fake escrow site and stealing eBay accounts is not going to register with their real name. Stop patting yourselves on the backs for thinking you've "CAUGHT THIS GUY!!". Way to go, you can lookup WHOIS and use google at the same time. Anyway, I really doubt you will catch this person. They most likely have a drop point, or will have you ship to a P.O. box. They are also probably doing most of this from an internet cafe or just using a proxy server so you aren't going to "trace the IP". I'm not sure if you've reported the account to ebay or just the escrow site, but report the account to ebay so it can be closed and report the website to the ISP of whomever is hosting it (http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=66.218.79.157), which appears to be Yahoo web hosting.

Start off by loving with him. Go pick up a FedEx form with a pre-printed tracking number on it and give him that number. It's valid, but it'll just say there is no package in the system. Wait a while for him to bitch about the number not being in their system, then make up some story about the package being sent back to you. This buys you time to fill jars with urine and occult voodoo objects to send to him. Or paint an etch-a-sketch silver and put an apple sticker on it. EDIT: Give him both a FedEx number and a DHL number. "I sent it both ways in case one way doesn't work". EDIT2: I'm not clever enough tonight to come up with a way to do this but we need to wheedle this fucker's phone number out of him. emil_muzz fucked around with this message at 03:48 on Apr 27, 2004 |

A goon posted some stuff for download, I believe it was in The Unnameable Forum (Horse Porn Junction). Peeps DLed it, and a script was run inside it that did something bad. I think it stole SA accounts, although I could be wrong on that. Anyway, some goons deconstructed the download, found out that it created a little file called lsass.bat (not to be confused with lsass.exe), and warned all goons to delete it before their computers would be compromised.
