I thought so I read the history about paypal and bitcoin and why its not accepted briefly. And buy going over the details of the product it looks so real and could scam alot of noobs in the system i just wish they take the thing down giving us bad rep.

How do you know it was a scam ?
I'm sure heaps of people who want to just get into BTC will look on ebay and have no clue about price and purchase it...

Just cause uninformed people do it doesn't mean its a scam... if that was the case everyting in "securities" would be a scam.. hmm lol...wait.. bad example... :p

*edit* I'm talking about the BTC not being a scam at double the price... not the mining contracts..... all though who knows.. people buy 5 yr cloud mining contracts... via an a non ebay website and that is apparently legit.... so why can't it be just cause its on ebay ?

Seems like a pretty bad scam for the scammers (sellers) if the buyer can just charge back and scam them...........

It doesn't have to be scam but the prices are unreal, maybe real for the ones that doesn't have clue about current bitcoin value and did read 1-2 articles about it tops and now are trying to jump on fast.

The price is bid so high because the buyer plans on charging back. Seller could have multiple paypal accounts and will withdraw funds right away so doesn't care.

Yeah but wont paypal just direct debit the bank account if they want the money back. Spose the seller could use the funds to buy a digital item quickly. Hmm or if stolen bank acct they probs give u the money then ask for it back..so might have time to withdraw it.

Paypal/ebay are one of the worst companies in terms of owing them money. Few years back i sold sumthing and owed them literally like $8 in fee's. They sent 2 emails and by the end of the 4th week had a letter from a local debt collector in my mailbox

These scammers know what they are doing. I won't post how they get away with it, because then we'll be seeing a increase in scamming Wink
