Bid Pay?!

[Sport182]

I bought something from Ebay with a few mins to go and didnt read the payment methods, Slip up by me!!!

They guy will only take;

Western Union Transfer (I know this can be dodgy, think ebay have now banned it)

Bid Pay (is this safe??)

Bidpay are the online version of Western Union.

That's all i can tell you I'm afraid.

^^^ thats enough info for me. Thanks.

I have already been told to stay away from Western Union so I think this auciton is dodgy as heck, as they say if it sounds to good to be true it normally is. Just wish I had read it a little better b4 bidding.

I have just sent him a mail re the Bank Wire Transfer an delivery so Ill see what sort of reply I get, think id rather have the Neg feedback then send him £30.

Did you notice the description says postage £50?

 

[ViolentJ]

Ooooops!

Is it maybe a hacked account?

 

[TheCake]

Phished. Very dodgy.

 

[Sport182]

lol its dodgy as fook. I spoke with Ebay and it turns out that the account was hacked. Therefore the item removed and my bid is cancelled.

Hopefully that will be the end of it, nothing lost.

Cheers for your help guys
