How do you spot these scams?

This guy has 189 feedback with 100% positive feedback, but the price is very cheap.

Yes indeed.. if you have an account ensure you have a strong password and change it regularly ..

another scam is asking for your password by email..

Any E MAIL that asks for your PASSWORD, SS# and or CREDIT CARD Info in order to confirm your E Bay or Pay Pal Account is a Fraud. Any one wanting that same information to give you a 'Prize' you 'randomly' won is also a Fraud. It is NOT from E Bay or Pay Pal no matter what it says. Many times the E Mail will direct you to a very official looking E Bay or Pay Pal page ..this page is a very clever fake. These emails make it sound as if you will be suspended if you don't reply. The intent is to get your personal information and hijack your account.

eBay and PayPal DO NOT work this way. If you get the message ignore it.. if you have replied to it... change your password immediately and inform Safe Harbor and/or PayPal. You are most likely to get this kind of scam mail if you use your E Mail Address as part of your ID.

example

Everyone in the eBay Community Buyer or Seller needs to be aware of this particular email Scam to obtain your eBay user name and Password !

Golden Rule

ONLY put your log in and passwords into websites loaded up from Shortcuts you have created yourself rather than searching on a search provider like google each time,

[HI]Thanks Paul for the cracking Job you do as scam spotter[/HI][HI][/HI]

to me two rules.

1. If in doubt-- do nowt.
2. If it looks too good to be true--it is.
