  As far as ebay…I have learned to get a signature confirmation. It’s worth the extra .50 cents or whatever they charge now. I have bought and sold on ebay for nearly 10 years now and have learned alot…mainly that most people cannot be trusted. Sad! 99% of all my transactions have been very positive and problem free, but it only takes that one “bite” to make a person leery.

  The funny thing just happened a couple hours ago. The “company” I was emailing about getting this money from called me! He was trying to convince me to move forward and I said I dont think so. He offered to lower the “fee” to half which would be $280 now not $560 and I still said no. He asked why and I told him, so I send the money on the understanding I am going to get a loan from you and then you never send me the money and I’m now $280 more in debt! He asked how he could convince me and I said, put a $1000 in my account, let me send you the $280 from that, then we can move forward. He was going on about how he would have to check and see if that was possible and I said yeah yeah and hung up. lol I’m desperate but not stupid!

  yes, but because of my low credit score, they wont do an unsecured loan. When I got divorced, it ruined my credit. My ex let our house go that he wanted to stay in and I moved out along with alot of other bs. I have managed to slowly build it back up, I have an auto loan thru Chrysler and make regular on time payments etc. I have a couple small limit credit cards, so I am getting there. But with the economy going to crap, the banks are tight.

  I know, I got scammed on ebay of all places. Twice! Once a long time ago I bid on a cell phone and the seller had alot of good comments etc. so I won the bid and didnt have payapl at the time, wired the money but never got my phone. It wasnt alot of money, but enuff. Then I was selling my car, had a guy bid on it, win the bid then bailed on finalizing the sell. Ebay charged me all the fees for listing, selling and final sales etc. I had to relist my car because he wouldnt pay, and ebay has not responded to any of my emails on resolving this matter. I am STILL trying to resolve that one.

  That’s what I’m doing, but in the meantime, the money I have already put out has put a real dent in my finances. I know she will have to reimburse me when all is said and done but she can drag this thing out for a long time..years from what I understand. I am waiting to hear back from my attorney as she has been served with papers to disclose the estates assets. I am the only surviving family member so it IS mine, but getting it from her is going to the a nighmare. He had no will but that actually makes it better for me.
