Hi! I have had my laptop bought on ebay 4 times in 5 days and all the time is was a fraud Nigerian. They also get my address when they buy it. Then they try to create a menace. And I have to keep on filing negative remarks and wait to file an unpaid item report. It is real troublesome. Also I am concerned about security issues as they get my full contact details.'
Thanks, please help

I am in the UK, and we have Nigerian scammers targetting ebay.co.uk all the time. They win auctions, but don't pay, and usually make up a story about a relative being ill and needing the item quickly. Be very very wary of Nigerian buyers (block them if need be) and never send items until the payment has cleared 100%

Hi addiecoolbz,
I appreciate the efforts you are taking to find out and report fraud buyers on the site. However, if you also report such buyers via the contact us link (http://pages.ebay.in/help/contact_us/_base/index.html), it will help the Trust and Safety department to investigate and take appropriate action against such users.
I also understand the frustration that you as a seller would be facing due to such fraud buyers, however, lets try and refrain from using unpleasant language in our community board communication.
Warm Regards,
Sapana
