Seriously, I'm
curious, anyone know how you scam someone with paypal?


By using a check, drawn on a bogus account, deposited into
another account: that account now has a check in it, even though
the check is drawn on 0 funds, so paypal clears/transfers the funds
into your account. An electronic trick, but equaling you getting no $$,
but loss of your property.


My experience trigger for the scam is the feature of the buyer NOT
picking up the property, nor giving you an address that the item can
be mailed to. There is always "an agent" who will pick up the item,
whether to transport it to a shipping vendor, or driving it to the buyer.
Always an agent involved.
