possibility of fraud, but I don't want check

Postby italyone » Sun Jan 22, 2006 4:57 pm

I was contacted from spain outside ebay and "forced" to use a http://www.online-steps.net, instead http://www.escrow-europa.com because the buyer says :

"I want to use Online Steps, simply because I'm an old customer of them and have many items transacted through them. I can guarantee a smooth and safe transaction.

If you want to complete this transaction, just give me a short e-mail and I will give you further instructions.

Thank you very much"

Do you think that 12 days are enough for be "an old customer of them" ?
...and also the buyer did not bid in the auction as I request.
This is just what happned : what do you think about?

We need the scammer's e-mail address and the address in Spain.
The more info the better.
Report his eBay user ID so others will not become victims.
