scam? Someone please respond! I really dont want to offend anyone here, as the person is a new member (as of today...). I've been very close to being scammed online before, so I'm always looking out for it. I posted a juicy bag for sale awhile ago and then bumped it today because I really need to sell it (it's just sitting in my closet!). I got a pm about an hour later from someone who joined today saying, "HI, i am interested, Is it still available? Shipping would be to Boca Raton Fl If it is still available, can you send me a paypal invoice please? Thanks in advance Mayrie" On her public profile her location says Mexico. I really hope I don't offend her but I am extremely nervous. Anyone have any idea or opinions? |
oops, I'm REALLY sorry... she joined september of 2005 but hasn't posted at all. Oh man, I really don't hope anyone thinks badly of me here.. |
Don't worry, no one thinks badly of you or her. I agree with you, it's better to be safe then sorry. I hope everything works out well:) |
As long as she pays the paypal invoice doesn't matter where she lives. If she doesn't pay within say like 5 days, just relist it. No harm no foul |
Yes, so long as she pays with paypal it shouldn't be a problem. Make sure if its an e-check that it clears first. Sometimes people move so that could be why the address is different or she might be sending it as a Christmas gift to someone or could be visiting with family in the states and wants it shipped there. |
and if you dont feel safe selling to someone just be truthful about it and thats it, but if she pays for it, then let ship it to the address she wants you to, and you never know she might of moved, and just now is going to be an active member you never know, but like everyone says better safe than sorry, trust ur instincs (spell check) |
Have her pay via paypal and send it to the verified paypal address only. Paypal will protect the purchase if you ship to the verified address. I have used paypal for over 5 years with only one mishap; and paypal covered me with the person who was trying to scam me. Hope this helps. Michele |
