Guest himaksim6days Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Hi, i have a small problem. I'm selling at eBay, and want to make a bizness out of this. The main thing about it is that 3 of 4 customers @ eBay use paypal only. I live in Estoniaand paypal is not offering any services in our region. I have plenty of stuff to sell. So you can help me and make money on it.WHAT DO I OFFER ?you need to recieve funds from my customers and send it to me.its risky for me, but i think everything is gonna be okey, because i have some guarranties :i'll ship goods, only after i recieve money from you, so if you are willing to cheat me, buyerand cops will force YOU. Thats why i think the best way to work is the honest one.WHAT DO YOU GET ?You have to do nothing but recieve and send money, and get 10% from every single transfer. Ill cover all the fees related to transfers. I think the best way tarnsferring the money for both of us is Western Union services. And other thing is that you are not sending money to some wierd person with e-gold account,you are sending it to a person who obeys the same laws as you do.You can catch me by mail.MY CONTACTS:himaksim6days@hotmail.comPS: i haven't got much time to check out all forums, so please, mail or questions and offers to our official mail above.PSS: THIS IS NOT KIND OF SPAM or SOMETHING! I REALLY NEED THE PARTNERS! PLEASE MAIL ME IF YOU CAN HELP ME. Quote
Master Jmd Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Erm...no. I can't really say that i disagree with you there oli... Quote
Half Penny Jon Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Sounds extremely dodgy to me..... Quote
Chris Perkins Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 I won't be using Western Union again after that Russian fiasco, and even if it is genuine (and I have heard about scams along those lines) I wouldn't have the time to go sneding and receiving money, and I'd have to drive half hour to the nearest Western Union office.himaksim6days, what's your ebay id? Who are you? What's your phone number? Address? If you don't provide those details, you're probably not at all genuine. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Yes, doesn't it.It's a sorry state of affairs when you have to basically distrust Eastern Europeans, because you're more likely to be conned by them than pretty much any other place in the world. himaksim6days probably won't be back.

Unknown Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Chris, then you didn't have any dealings with Brazilians...It sounds like a scam. Someone gives me the money, I give it to you, and if the shipment doesn't arrive, then paypal takes the money back from my account and you are home free while I loose money... I don't think so...The only way of doing it is, I receive the money from the customer, you send the shipment, the customer tells me that he has whatever you sold him, then I send you the money except 10% that is mine.That is the only way anyone should do this.

Coppers Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Yes, doesn't it.It's a sorry state of affairs when you have to basically distrust Eastern Europeans, because you're more likely to be conned by them than pretty much any other place in the world. himaksim6days probably won't be back. I also collect Russian banknotes and so I deal with East Europeans all of the time and have had few if any problems. I receive emails from Africa on a regular basis offering me a share of tens of millions of dollars locked away in a US account. There are the emails requesting that I verify my ebay and/or paypal accounts. And, most recently, I received an email on an item for which I was an underbidder on ebay, offering to sell it to me at my bid. All scams. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Fortunately there are many exceptions in Eastern Europe, although I've not yet been contacted by an honest African (apart from a few in South Africa). Africans tend to want expensive coins/items and they want to pay by credit card!Usually when I say that I would have to have cleared funds before sending I don't hear from them again. Quote
Peter Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Why can't we all just send you cash....then we would all know exactly how much you are ripping us off for. Quote
Emperor Oli Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 If he would just correct his spelling and grammar, it would be a lot more believable (to me, at least)! Quote
Chris Perkins Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 If he would just correct his spelling and grammar, it would be a lot more believable (to me, at least)! Oli! He probably really is from Estonia, so you can't really bring him up on his English.Besides, it's no worse than JMD's Quote
Emperor Oli Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Mmm his guarranties for the bizness seem okey Im sold! Quote
Andy Bruce Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Definitely sounds dodgy! Steer well clear of this one. Quote
Unknown Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 I think no one in here is going to fall for it, so don't worry Andy. Quote
Andy Bruce Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Hi Unk - are you the Unk I've given my winnings to (from Tiffi)? Quote
Geoff T Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Yes, I'm sure this guy's to be treated with the utmost suspicion. I've been to Estonia a couple of times. I've always found the people very friendly and honest, and also very determined to shed that "Eastern Europe ex-Soviet bloc" image, but I daresay there are plenty of exceptions.G Quote
Unknown Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 Hi Unk - are you the Unk I've given my winnings to (from Tiffi)? Yes I am!How do you know! Quote
Andy Bruce Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Maybe it's cos you've got the same Avatar on both sites, Unk!! Quote
Unknown Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Maybe it's cos you've got the same Avatar on both sites, Unk!! I know, I took it from the other site and copied it into this one... even if it is smaller here, it still works.The question was not an actual questio... Quote
