I wanted to sell my Ps4 on eBay and was also contacted at the same time. The buyer is from England and wants me to send him the parcel number and then send me my money. I wanted to ask if this is a money mesh and I'll copy one of his messages in here:
"I want you to know that I have paid for this item and I have a notification from my bank. I think you have also received confirmation from my bank that the money has been transferred to your bank account, but you will need it In order to verify the shipment before all of the money can be transferred to your bank account, my bank needs to verify the shipment before transferring the funds to your bank account. This is because the transfer is an international transaction, so you need to make sure that me and you do not lose my money, they do this to protect both the buyer and the international seller for you and me so as not to lose anything from you. Hope you understand why my bank after tracking Code asks before she can transfer all of the money to your bank account. Now all you have to do is book the item and send it to the address I gave and the shipping receipt to normal Send verification to my bank so the money can be seen in your bank account.
Beware, it is a known scam, this is a scam.
I recently had a completely strange text message from an alleged prospect and he just wanted to get my bank details.
ALWAYS always the money FIRST, by bank transfer (whoever can't get it back) or even better in CASH, and only then does the package go on its journey.
NOT PREVIOUSLY!
Okay thanks
Typical scam. Everyone who sells something will get it.
please don't go into it. You are a commodity and your money is on the loose
Okay thank you
