So i will like you to send me your full contact information to where my client will be sending you the Certified Check like this:

zipcode............
Cell/Office/Home phone number........................

I will like to copmplete this transaction as soon as possible. I will be waiting for your reply with payment details mailed.
THANKS.

You are very generous, sir! How about I will keep the $2000.00 (you cash the cashiers check and send the cash with your shipping agent) and I will go have a nice lobster and steak dinner on you. LMAO!!!!

Good morning;

The high wheeler is was bought from an Estates sale, so no, it is not new. As I stated in the add, it made in Italy by Aurelia Company. Everything on the bike is original. The only damage is the Blue bell is missing the back, and the tires (all original) are flat. I have not cleaned it as it was found in an old barn so it looks aged but not rusted. You can see for yourself.

I will take $225.00 for the bike, and you pay for shipping. If paying via cashiers check, I will need to deposit the check, wait until it clears my bank before the item can be shipped.

Let me know.

Denise

Have any of these scammers actually purchased anything from anybody here and paid through PayPal. If so did have a confirmed address and where they confirmed buyers through PayPal. If any readers are not sure what this means then it probably didn't happen to you so please do not respond to this. I'm only looking for the following scammers that fall under the above criteria. Those are the real deal full scale scammers that we all need to watch out for. I would really appreciate anybody's feedback that had this happen to them. THANK YOU ALL. Cool

I've received five orders so far using this name and email address. When I contacted the supposed buyer he indicated that he never ordered anything.

Name: Nick Harding Email address: nickman8559@yahoo.com

Netgalleries, I had the same thing happen, same person address, etc. I traced the IP to the UK.

I knew it was too good of an order with no reply to any of my emails to him.

Guess some people have nothing better to do than make fake orders.

I am now considering dropping the option of payments made by anything other than Google since they can even place an order through Paypal and not have to follow through.

I don't follow. How is Google different in that respect? I don't offer Google but thought they worked about the same.

Copia, are you saying it was the same person as the one I am having the problem with? If so, I guess it would answer the question of whether it is me they are trying to harass or the kid they've got something against. Did you save the I.P. address it came from? If so, check it against this one and we'll see if its the same "perpetrator" : 86.134.91.138

netgalleries, Yes! I checked the IP address and it is the same as what you posted. I traced it to the source and contacted the server and reported the abuse of what they are doing. I do not know if anything will come from it but at least they are aware. The "perpetrator" is apparently just trying to harass Mr. Harding.

wtcollectibles, What I mean by the statement of considering dropping all is that if someone pays by any method other than Google it can show up as a false order.

I checked the order system and noticed that any other payment options, at least on my account, show a person can pay with personal check, money order, cashier's check and Paypal. Any of those payment methods will show me that an order has been placed.

If an order is placed using Google, I do not receive the order until AFTER the checkout process is complete.
Any other method, the buyer can click the place order button and whether they pay or not I receive an order notice.

Hope this clarifies my last statement.

While true, keep in mind that orders placed via Google Checkout can be canceled during the first 15 minutes. That 15 minutes begins at the same time that GC sends you the order notification email (and it shows up on your GC console).

Cosmicray, Thank you for the insight on the Google console. For the time being, I am going to just leave all options of payment open. I figure, why do potentially more damage to my sales because of one bad apple. I never was out anything in the first place.

Yes! nickman8559 is the email of the person that placed the bogus order with myself and others here. It is a valid email, it doesn't bounce messages back to you. So that tells me he getting his kicks having people send him emails thanking him for his orders.
