    I m not patronizing you.

    When I lost 250 GBP on a fraud, offline, I saw it as an expensive lesson in life, which will hopefully make a better businessman out of me. There's always a bright side of things.

    Weird! I think (I might be wrong here) this is a guy that had a whole pile of really rare Xbox units on auction just a few weeks ago. They caught my attention as they were the ULTRA rare variety (Orta / Hello Kitty / White / Mountain Dew and a Incredible Hulk). I am SURE it's the same guy as I recognise the address in Germany.

    As you can imagine, a selection of consoles like that in the mittens of one seller is bound to attract attention & some doubts. Does anyone else remember these auctions or did I make them up? It may be that this guy is a very successful scammer indeed! We are talking hundreds of Euros at a time on high interest items.

    Nothing in his feedback to suggest that ANYONE bought / paid / received or did't get those items though, so please don't take this for definate. I just KNOW that sellers address from somewhere as it is eye catching too.

    Anyone remember seeing these auctions? I am sure if you were a European Xbox & eBay fan you'd have spotted them roughly 3 or 4 weeks ago. Perhaps he is fobbing loads of people off with a variety of stall type stories.

    I just know that he actually has a lot of rare consoles. It's easy to gain all these unit scamming people this way.

    Yes i believe i saw and looked Mountain Dew and the white one, may have skipped by the rest But at first i thought it was odd but having such a good feedback i just never really took much notice of how odd i thought it seemed

    I guess on eBay he gets his feedback mainly from selling. Check his Feedback there are many DVDs and stuff. He might get the Consoles from Forums etc.

    From now on it will be all in the hands of Interpol.

    If you find other interesting informations regarding this scam, please let me know.

    Pay attention no to put yourself into danger or into the bad side.

    The police said that everything will be given to Interpol. I'll signal everything als to Guardia di Finanza.
    The others shold do the same in their country.

    Since there are so many informations and details, the policemen was very positive.

    Correct. Don't fight trouble with more trouble. You never know what kind of person this guy is. Tell him to go with a police man.
