Bogus second chance offers are being sent from foriegn scammers who are posing as the seller.
If you are outbid on an item and then receive a second chance offer to buy it, please make sure that you are really dealing with the seller.Always go back to the actual auction page and contact the seller from there to confirm that the offer is for real.
Because second chance offers are a familiar thing to most people who use ebay, I can see how someone could be easily fooled by this.I have heard of 5 recent incidents of this scam, each of them coming from someone in England.I just helped save a guy $970 yesterday.Please help pass the word around Thanks Will
