I had one where there was NO item number listed... talking about stupid.... I wonder how many idiots respond to these such that the senders keep trying? Talk about stupid customers! Using my email program, I delete without looking at all email addresses from certain freebie places, including, AOL, gmail, and a few others. It cuts through the nonsense so that I do not get annoyed as easily.... It is so eeasy for the freebie places to get a second or third or whatever email address.....that you can not shut them down. Just temporarily slow their pace..... Real addresses can be traced, and therefore fraud can be an issue for those scammers. It IS a real problem, and as long as Ebay somehow allows our real addresses to get out, it will continue. Frank Filippone red735i@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Another trick I'm seeing is bogus Second Chance offers. This is where you've bid on something on eBay, and, after the auction closes, you get an email saying the auction fell through, offering you the item at whatever bid you'd made. You can tell these offers are bogus in several ways: ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
