This guy made over $100k by getting 108 people to send him money orders($200-$600 each) in the mail for ipods and other crap he never intended on shipping

108 peope got took.
105 of those people are fucking stupid. Don't they read feedback? I can see if a couple people get screwed but you need to research your seller before you buy from them.

You'd think after the first one he'd try buying from someone else...

Looks like the same people that play poker use E-Bay too. GG Fish.

Of course if you actually read the sites and the blogs he was an ebay powerseller with over 200 good feedback and 2 resolved negative feedback and most of the auctions went at the sametime. So most people had sent in money before the ton of feedback was recieved.

from what I heard he had ~400 auctions all ending on the same day, so it'd be impossible for negative feedback to show up early for the others. Quite the scheme, but even if he's in another country, these people have been caught before
