You'd think these people would have learnt by now that all ebay users are told NEVER to give out account details and that ebay will NEVER ask for your details!! Yet they still persist.

My mate at work had a bad scam recently. Bid for an item (we're talking £500 camera here), didn't get it. Somebody mailed him with a 'second chance offer', asking him to transfer the money via western union money transfer!!!. Good job he wasn't stoopid!.

Be careful out there folks!.
