I hear what everyone is saying about it being a scam, but if the guy WIRES the money into his account, then what could the scam be? I spoke to my bank about this - they say that wire transfers cannot be "undone" and once the funds are confirmed in the account, that's it. They say the only possible thing the sender can do is claim fraud and possibly have the funds frozen until a court order comes in to do something. But I'd think that if you opened an account (for the purposes of the transfer), then got it and immediately moved the funds into another account, you would be safe.
anyone want to take a guess if this one is legit? if so, I'll take it... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290095972957&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:MT:1
Ha! Gmail account = fraud! Might as well have a hotmail account for contact info. He's a magician by trade. Once the deposit is secured, voila, he disappears! BT
