I was ALMOST scammed! I caught them just in time.
I listed an item and it was "sold" to user "soweramsn". I sent them an invoice for the amount of $475 with shipping, then they proceeded to ask for photos of the project, which I sent promptly. The buyer also requested that I send this item to Nigeria via USPS express and "payed" me an extra $100.
The sale went underway and I shipped said item after I recieved an email from what looked like Paypal. The email seemed legit, but requested that I send a reply with the tracking number for the package to unlock my funds. The email listed was from "[email protected]". Right away, I noticed that the email, and the buyer accounts were fraudulent. I canceled the shipment and retrieved my package right away.
