I am not a 'net cop' nor want to be one. I just received this email with subject 'auction items'... I don't know if I should tell this seller someone is using his name to sell things (probably non existent items) through email, using his name... checked out the 'power seller' he is pretending to be, and I am pretty sure it isn't him, but the sender is purporting to be him.... this is the email ... any suggestions, or just let it go?
Dear Sir/Madam, I am an ebay power seller and lately I have found mailing people directly is a better form of selling my items. I am:

Friends Series 1-7 - $150 (On dvd not vcd)

Definitely looks like a scammer ... the real www-zuke-com is United States and DOES have the Paypal option on all his auctions.

You know, I've never emailed a seller before, that didn't have to do with a specific auction that I was personally interested in. So I don't know if that is acceptable?
Yeah, the guy that wrote this said he is in Canada, and I love the way he says (and that is a copy paste, his misspellings )
I don't take PayPal due to too much fraud these days!
I just wonder if anyone actually would fall for this..... if you look up that name, there is a power seller with that name, but looks like he doesn't have to resort to this! looks like he is a computer company on ebay.

Fluffy, I know he's back, on weekends, just too lazy right now to change it
ok, I can email this url to the powerseller... I'm pretty postive he's NOT spamming emails for his stuff off eBay. Someone is messing with his name though, and I surely wouldn't like it, if it happened to me.
thanks all

Read the recent post by AKmcmc1-he has linked a good article on an eBay thief. Sounds like this might be the same guy. I got it also-deleted it quick!!

How cool Jack!
Well, I would normally agree about the rain, but this summer was theeeeee driest and warmest in the longest time I've known. I was born, and raised here too.... its been so dry, I am actually HOPING for rain LOL!
Well, I don't remember the Worlds Fair, I think I was 3? or so, but they tell me I went
I used to love to go downtown, but anymore, the traffic is awful, the parking, and all, but I miss going to Pike Place Market, the waterfront and yes, the Seattle Center; Space Needle
(and don't forget the Mariners and the Seahawks! wow, they built them their own Stadiums, right next to each other. I have been to lots of Mariners games at Safeco Field, with a RETRACTABLE roof thats for our infamous rain! )
