    "Each bid entered regardless of price of auction engages you to purchase 1 TICKET for the price of 250$"

    So, if I am reading this correctly, you bid (currently at $255) to allow you to purchase 1 ticket (i.e. $255 bid +250 for ticket). Scam.

    The overwhelming vast majority of scams pulled on US residents come from Montreal by the way.

    Telephone marketing, mail fraud, and internet are all headquartered there. Look where his address is located.

    I'm surprised that the seller's name has yet to be mentioned.

    Alotless4more, LMAO:) At least this scammer has a sense of irony.

    I'm really amazed that people fall for this crap.

    It's actually kind of embarassing that this kind of scam comes from my hometown. BTW, anyone notice that this individual has decided to hide his feedbacks on E-Bay...gee I wonder why?
