[A legitimate second chance offer will have your full REAL
name in the headline (not only your ebay name) and will have a link to an
ebay site setup for this transaction. In other words,  it links you back to
the auction, but its a specially made site that has a buy it now button at
the second-chance price. check that the browser adress is motors.ebay.comnot
ebay.sendmemoneytonigeria.com. Also, any second chance offer that tells you
to close the deal by emailing the seller is SPOOF.]

The scammers have now improved their old methods and rendered the above
criteria for judging a legit 2nd chance email obsolete.

I received a 2nd chance notice today from 'ebay' that included my real name,
along with my user name, specifically saying that it was including my full
name as verification that the email was authentic.

There were no strange links at all. The only links were back to ebay and the
original auction.

Nevertheless, I just received word from the seller that the email was bogus.

SO BEWARE!

They are starting to look more and more authentic!

So, uh . . . anyone got an '89 or newer Westy in good shape, rust-free, no
major body damage, low-miles for under $10,000?

THE SEARCH CONTINUES . . .
