Just FYI to anyone interested, I am the victim of a recent scam (infrequent ebay user, did not have my guard up). Basically I received an email immediately after a sale asking for shipping to a different address. I assumed any message associated with the item sold would only be from the buyer. Long story short I'm out approx $1000. ebay would not help. Live and learn, but I though I would pass on the nature of the scam. It is documented here -> If You’re Selling GPUs On Ebay, Beware Of This Shipping Scam ( this is not my article but the text of the message from the scammer is exactly the same that I received, this is just another example). After looking into my issue it is very surprising to me (infrequent user as stated above) to find out the amount of scams that occur on ebay. I'm not sure it even worth using their service anymore.
