I am usually aware of these things and all of the other scams, but one caught me off guard a while back but I was able to change my password before anything happened. I was pretty ashamed of myself when I realized what happened and it was very clever and one I havent seen before..

I listed a bunch of stuff on Ebay and after the auctions ended I got an Ebay email which opened up like the typical inter-Ebay type correspondence we've all seen before. I answered the email and realized that it was a phishing email after I sent the reply.. I then logged in and changed my password and all was ok but if I didn't realize it, I would have been jammed..

Hi Dave,  I did not see your ad, but might be interested in your Orion II.
I live in Nashville and my Brother lives in Knoxville on the east side.
What filters do you have or anything else with the xcvr?  73 Don n4zz

I have listed my Orion II twice on eBay for sale and both times the
reserve
was not met.  However, both times, serious bidders have received fake
offers
via email to purchase the Orion at a reduced price from thieves posing as
the owner of the rig.

I will have the rig at the Ten Tec hamfest September 30 for anyone wishing
to purchase it.  Price is $3,600.

Use extreme caution when bidding on eBay or listing items to sale. I have
sent eBay Security copies of the fake offers both times but just received
a
"canned" email back from them on how to avoid problems in using their
service.
