I don't really understand it. What's going on anyway?
Other than the Nigeria location. -
Victim list an item which was cancelled by ebay for fraudulent bidding. Victim received scam mail about payment. Victim was supposed to sent item off due as already received 'payment' which was the scam.
scam victim sent item off without receiving payment. -
A Nigerian used other people account to bid. Winning bid was canceled because eBay found out the Nigerian account was used to fraud.
Scammer sent another email using "poorly constructed fake PayPal “confirmation” email" and stating that scammer had sent the author money. Scammer sent another email hoping author would send item, threatening with big names as FBI, willing to top up more money instead of author not sending item. Best part is author has not received any single cent, and the scammer must be downright dumb [ Nigeria scammers...you can't expect much
