I was selling a laptop on Ebay, and a person named shoshaunush (Susie) contacted me and said she would pay £500 for the item if I would send it to Nigeria. I then received an email from service@paypal.com that my account had been credited with £499.00 and I needed to send a tracking number of the parcel to release the funds. The email looked real with the paypal logo and copyright stuff at the bottom so I carried on the sent the parcel. I then sent the tracking code off to "PayPal" and I then received an email saying that the money is being processed. I called the real PayPal and they confirmed that everything that was happening was a scam and fake. I have lost a laptop and £120 on postage to Nigeria. Fantastic.
