Fun with an eBay troll...

[olds]

I still want to hear his reply to someone picking it up in person.

Someone should email him back a bogus payvment information like he requested. Make him go to WU and bug them about a non existant money transfer. If he does it half a dozen times they will know him when he goes there and probably won't ever provide service to him again.

I see you are a good and serious bider.
Thanks for your bid!
I'm from Europe,and I will preffere to send me the money via Western
Union,because this method is the fastes and easy system for both of us. I will send you the laptop via UPS or DHL.You receive the package in 2-3
days.
After you send me the money please email me the MTCN (Money Transfer Control
Number).
The other method like escrow or COD ,it takes to much time (2-3 weeks)
because in my country banking system is to slow,and I need some money quikly
to solve some problems(for that I must sell my best computer at a lower
price).
Regards!


unfortuntelly i dind't spend my time to fvck with him.. i should have.. I just ignored him after I realized it sounded too fishy


I want to know what his reponse is for picking it up in person!

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

Cool, I just got the email back from him. Check it out:

Hello again Sir or Madam,

The system is still for sale. The $1500 is great. That is my best
price.
I will give you the Free Shipping and I am willing to pay half of the
Western Union fee. Just keep it from the actual amount.

Here is what you have to do:

You will have to go to the Western Union and send the money to the
folowing info:

- name: Danut Bunea;
- address: Pucioasa, Dambovita, DB 0275;
- country: Romania.

After you do that, please send me an email containing the folowing
info:

- sender's name and address;
- MTCN (money transfer control number) as shown on the WU receipt;
- exact amount sent.

I need this to be able to verify the transaction.

After I receive the email, I will go straight to the UPS and ship the
laptop to your address.

Suggestion: You will have to check the "reason" bos there on the
receipt. I suggest that you check the "donation" box, or whatever, as they
have a problem with "comercial" purposes, if you know what I mean.

Please tell me if this is enough info, and if so, I will wait for the
WU
receipt info email.

Thank you very much for your understanding.

Regards,
Danut



What should I do next. I really want to fvck with this guy!

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

I just sent him this email:

Hello again,
OK, I just sent the money. Please check at the Western Union Office. As soon as you get it, let me know and I'll give you my address. This sounds like a awesome deal. Is the Laptop made in Romania? Thank you.

I think everyone that has been messing with him should synchronize a time to email him fake WU numbers. Then he would go to WU with a fistful of numbers. I can see it now:

scammer: I am here to retrieve this wire number xxxxxxxxx
WU employee: Sorry, that number is not valid
scammer: (thinking, wtf?) Well, how about this one
WU employee: nope, no good either
scammer: (getting nervous) This one?
WU employee: nope
scammer: (realizing he was set up) F&$K! (throws rest of email confirms in the air)

Combine that with the soiled diaper genie sausage shipped in a rubbermaid air tight container and you have a truely diabolical punishment! Only a parent can understand the stench that will eminate from that container when opened, especially after a week of fermenting :Q

I think this was the funniest post I've ever read on here. Seriously, I laughed for half a minute. Great thread everyone. I'm not doing anything tonight, maybe I'll jump in on the fun.

 

[xuanman]

there's got to be a way to get this guy arrested. messing with him is fun, but he might just learn how to improve his scams.

 

[kermalou]

i am willing to wire him 1.00 and tell him that i wired him 1,000, REASON WESTERN UNION SCREWED UP, but the feees

 

[smartt]

So you're one of them 'bid now, ask later' kind of bidders?

We need someone who makes $15 just breathing to bust out this technique.

"You only got $1? My receipt says $1000!"

I am in for a couple of bucks if someone wants to collect paypal and do it.

 

[Miramonti]

how about if we pitch in a few bucks for one $1 WU wire, one person sends him the confirmation number, then claims the mistake and that it will be resent or whatever, but then we all send him the same confirmation number afterwards with perhaps some additional links or references to the FBI? Thoughts/ideas?

It would be really nice to scare the piss out of him tho...perhaps get his ip address, tell him we've notified his isp and the local authorities etc :Q


BTW...still haven't heard from LordMaul regarding his friend in Romania. With all the neffing that he does its unbelievable that he hasn't chimed in and updated us!

 

[jlee]

I do western union transfers at work...I'm guessing it's about 25-30 bucks to send to Romania..maybe more, depending on the amount. It's not cheap, even to send in-state

 

[DivideBYZero]

Heheh.

I want video of this gimp going to WU with all the emails.

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

He sent me another email. I need a fake WU number to give him. Anybody got one?

Hello,

Thank you for sending the money. I said, that after you do that I will
need the email containing the folowing to be able to check out the
transaction:

- sender's name and address;
- MTCN (money transfer control number) as showm on the WU receipt;
- exact amount sent.

After I receive that email, I will go straight to the UPS and ship the
laptop. Yes, the laptop is in Romania. But, it shouldn't take more than
2 days to come to your address.

Please respond quickly.

Thank you again,
Danut

 

[BennyD]

how about at a predetermined time, everyone sends him an e-mail saying the exact same thing (pwn3d?)

maybe even create a new thread entitled "send to d|ckwad now!!!"

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

BTW, what a jackass! 2 days from Romania to get the laptop. Does he think they use the Concord?

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

Come on, this dude is sitting on his Yahoo account hitting the refresh button!

Okay, thanks.

I will wait.

We'll talk in a few minutes.
