I was about to be a victim of this Nigerian scam when the buyer had bought my listed item from ebay and when it was time to pay he removed himself from the ebay site and was no longer a registered user (Registered as "vmoblie1125" and his email id :v_mobliecompany_xx@yahoo.co.uk)for which ebay credited the final fee value back to my account (Thanks)
Later this guy contacts me on my mail and says he has paid thru his paypal account and I can ship the mobile to a nigerian address to one Mr.Yemi Olatobi at 29, Soretire Street Ifako/ ijaye Ogba, Lagos State,Nigeria-23401 thru DHL or UPS. I also recieved a mail from Paypal (email id: paypal_online services@reallyfirst.com) saying that the amount has been paid by the buyer and I need to give them the DHL / UPS tracking number as proof for recieving my payment.
The i was suspicious with the whole transaction and felt lik searching the net for this address. To my shock I find the below mentioned link in you phillipines site where soem seller has already mentioned about these Nigerian scams.

Hope that you take care and spread the word to other Ebay users about it so that they do not get defrauded
