eBay scam?

Conclusion, it turned up today. Not the one pictured in the listing but it works fine. Not had chance to contact the bank yet to get everything normal his end. I must get round to that tomorrow [emoji106]

You should report that to eBay that it’s not the one pictured in the ad.

Looking back at the thread still all seems a bit odd. The only risk I can see is that the one you have is stolen, that way it wouldn't be legally yours but I'm not sure how you can check.

eBay are up to speed with it all, I’ve all this to get through so it’s down to eBay/the bank to sort out now. Get what you pay for, and I’ve paid for it

No. If it's stolen it gets taken away.

I thought afterwards, as you are in touch with bank fraud department who will know just where to look, If they are a legit company they would have a legit account and not be relying on grandads account: get the bank to check the attempted use in M&S; companies may have to be registered at company register house (or other) check this too. Sounds like they've had to acquire one from somewhere.

But good luck all the same.

True dat

...but that's an awful lot of very shiny kit for £350, considering the state of the one in the original ad and the price of any other half decent one. Very clean, worth twice as much.

Get those logs done while you can mate.

Glad you got an outcome but can't see it being genuine at that price!
