Hi All,
Be on the lookout for an "Ask Seller A Question" from spadepug. The email contains an advertisement for a hot new auction site. If you click on the link it will try to run a script on your computer. My friend has Norton AntiVirus and it still crashed his computer.
Regards,
Adrian

I am getting alot of "Ask Seller" questions. I reply to them no matter how stupid they are because you never know whether this is a real potential buyer or not. Now I am getting inundated with spam. Gee, I wonder where these came from????

Hi, I am not getting as many ask the seller a question email during the auction, I am getting more than the normal amount after auction end, if it sold or didn't sell, asking if I have another or in case buyer does not buy, etc. I just received 2 stupid emails from 2 different buyers (or at least they claim they are)offering a ridiculous amount on an item, which weighs 82 pounds, their offer included shipping, and of course ins. It really boiled down to I would be out of pocket close to $100.00. I just received the same offer again this morning asking me to reconsider, I just replied like the last time, thank you but no thank you, but added that this is against ebay policy and If I do receive another email I will have no choice but turn all 3 emails over to ebay. Now I hope I am not going to get even more spam.Especially the porn.
