Post Ebay Fraud Alert - Pushead HSP
I received an email from someone on ebay for a second chance offer on a pushead hsp pirate. Pictures and everything. Seller said that the original buyer did not complete the transaction. This is a fake. I bought the pirate so I know this is a fraud. Beware!

There's an info thread on this board about phishing.

The bay is trying to make bidding anonymous or censored because of all the problems they've had with bogus 'second chance' offering.

This is coming from the actual seller's ebay account. His password was compromised.

Ya i had got one on a GID LED pumpkinbrain.
Randomly got a thing for my max bid saying like ya shipped pay pal me bla bla bla wrote back and got what seemed to be some generic response that had almost nothing to do with specifics i had asked i.e. Hey are you on skullbrain.org? and got back I have no place for the item so you can have the (insert name of item) if you want, if not I am going to have to post it on ebay tomorrow so you should buy it now before others can have at it! Cheers.
