Postby nikk42 » Wed Mar 23, 2005 9:02 pm

http://www.freetransactions.com

I got a mail from a italian guy (Christian Manson?) who wanted to buy my item on ebay at the price I chose right now ! I talked about paypal an he linked me to the freetransactions" wbite : "ok. I want to do this. I think it is best for us if you receive payment by escrow. I will pay the escrow fees with http://www.freetransactions.com. If you want to go on with the transaction please register yourself with them and start a transaction with me. I will pay DHL taxes for shipping and escrowing service fees. Thank you and have a nice day!"

Tell me what you think of it. Best

I would first refer you to http://escrow-fraud.pgardner.net/ Please note the main Picture. Although it's reduced, I am sure you can see the resemblence.

Then if you go to http://escrow-fraud.pgardner.net/images.php you will see images of all different domains. But oddly enough many of them have the same layout. The one thing they ALL have in common is that they are frauds.

Check the WHOIS info (I like using http://samspade.org ) and see the creation date. Also do a google search for the domain (with out the .com ) Generally the hits you get will either point to fraud of this site... Point to thie site alone ( i.e. the google default of adding the .com on the end), or they will point to totally unrelated sites. (as is the case with this one).

My suggestion is to avoid this site (and buyer) and save yourself the hassle.

Good luck, let us know how it turns out.
