BUYER BEWARE - FRAUD ALERT

Post by rustynswrail »

Anyone thinking of buying this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Whistler-WS1 ... Sw5VFWKIFl beware it is more than likely a fraudulent listing.

There has been a spate of this type of listing on Ebay whereby the price for the item is well below wholesale and as you can guess too good to be true. Make your own mind up.

Seller feedback < 100 or < 98% I don't bother with. There's heaps of fraudulent listings posted on eBay, Gumtree, Craigslist etc every day.

Mind you, Ebay is very good about making sure sellers are honest.

If your item does not arrive, it gets refunded within 3 days if the seller does not respond.

They are at it again. The location is at the back of Wauchope in the middle of the scrub.
