i get different scams from Nigeria, I have 3 girls from Nigeria emailing me about marrage and wanting money to come to the states.

two of them say their from the uk and are in Nigeria for school and want to come here, and one says she is from atlanta missouri, and she is a antique dealer and needs money to get back to the states,

:laugh:
 
lol, ask for naked pics like the guy on the other thread did. Why do these all come from Nigeria?
 
I would have just let them send the paypal payment and not bid on the auction. If they did actually decide to send the money, without proof of purchasing the item (item number, some type of other online proof) Paypal won't refund them.
 
guess im stupid, but how is this a scam?


You are selling the item, he asked to buy it, where's the scam?
 
once you see in paypal that the money is there you would naturally send the item out, well the money gets pulled back out because the card they used was stolen, fake or whatever. problem is you sent the item already, get it now?
 
Ahh yes.

So, is there any way to access the paypal money before it is pulled back out?
 
well it will be in your hands and you can even deposit it into your account and use it.. But a few weeks later you'll owe paypal XXX amount of money.
