Below are
examples of 'phishing' scams. The target company is EBay. You
may receive an e-mail which looks like one or more of these samples.
If you do receive one, do *NOT* click any links in the message or reply to
them. Simply forward it to Report@doshelp.com and also send a copy to
spoof@ebay.com. When you
forward your message, be sure you make the 'Subject' line to be "Ebay Fraud Website Report". This will
help route your report to allow us to process it faster.
I'd like to take this opportunity to
appeal to the users who report fraudulent, scam & Phishing
e-mails here, as well as the owners/officers of the targeted
companies/Institutions listed in this site.
Alot of work goes into collecting,
identifying the fraud sites, sharing them with the
security/privacy community to assist in making up-to-date
protection available for everyone. Most of all
reporting the fraud sites to the ISP's who host them in a
genuine effort to get the resource closed as quickly as
possible.
In all the years I have performed this
service for the internet public on my own, not once has a
person, company or financial institution step up and offer
any monetary 'thanks' for efforts to save them or their
customers the embarrassment of being defrauded. Today, I'd
like to offer that opportunity to anyone who would like to
show their appreciation.
Regardless of this message's impact on
you, rest assured that I will continue to seek out and shut
down these fraudulent sites.
If you have questions, prior to submitting a report of a
suspected phishing/fraud site, you can
contact us and we'll be glad to help you. When
reporting phishing e-mails it's important to forward the original e-mail
rather than copy/pasting it, this preserves the hidden link information
that will identify the 'true' source of the fraudulent website.
You can enhance your Ebay experience as well as protect
yourself from fraud/phishing sites by downloading and installing the E-Bay Tool Bar. [Download it

Current
status: Payment pending.Purchase protection granted.
Dear
<your
name>, thank you for your purchase.
After
verifying the trustworthiness of the seller and the
availability
of the merchandise for immediate shipping, we have approved
your buy it
now transaction and offered you, as the buyer, full purchase
protection
for the amount you agreed on with the seller.
When you accepted this
transaction, be assured that the member is a qualified
seller and you can feel assured that your transaction will
go smoothly and that you are dealing with one who has
consistently met the requirements established by eBay.
Complete your eBay transaction in 5
easy steps:
Buyer and seller agree on the transaction terms and a
selling price.
Seller contacts eBay with the transaction details;
eBay accepts the transaction and offers purchase protection
to the
buyer (if the transaction is declined, no further action is
required from either the buyer or the seller);
The buyer sends payment and the seller receives it. After
the payment
cleared, the seller must notify eBay. Buyer will send the
payment
details directly to the seller e-mail address. The seller
has three
business days to send to the buyer and eBay the tracking
number of the
shipment. If no tracking number is provided, a full refund
is
immediately sent to the buyer;
Buyer receives the merchandise and has five days to inspect
it.
If it is complete and as described, the buyer should accept
the merchandise.
If he refuses the merchandise, the buyer must ship the
merchandise
back to the seller within three business days.
After the inspection period is over, the buyer must contact
eBay with
the result of the inspection. If the buyer refuses the
merchandise,
the refund will be sent to the buyer after the tracking
number for the
returned shipment is verified.
To enjoy the purchase protection, you must send the payment
by the
insured payment method below. Attention: Sending the payment
by any
other method will avoid this transaction and your right to
refund.

To submit the payment with Western Union Money Transfer, you have
the next
option:

Click here to locate the agents in your area
Western Union Money Transfer is the only service that has ultimate
authentication of the identity of the receiver of funds. Several IDs
and utility bills are required before the funds are paid. Therefore,
no
one else but your seller can pick up the money. Your payments cannot
be
lost in the mail, like money orders or checks.
Sellers from Romania are not yet eligible for the PayPal Buyer
Protection, which
means you are not protected against fraud if you pay this seller by
PayPal.
However, Western Union Money Transfer is designed mainly for sending
cash to friends and family in need, so telling them you are sending
the
money to an eBay seller will prevent your money transfer to go
through
and you will be unable to complete this transaction.
Once the
payment is sent, e-mail the seller the following information:
1) Money Transfer Control Number (10
digit control number):
2) Exact sender's name on file with Western Union:
3) Your street address on file with Western Union:
4) City and country where you sent the money from:
5) Amount sent:
6)Your complet name and address for shipping.
7)Scaned Paper from the Western Union office
Then wait for the confirmation the payment was received. Within 3
business days, you will receive the tracking number for your
merchandise.
Purchase
protection and refund:
Currently, this seller has a US$
5,000.00 deposit in an eBay managed
purchase protection account. Transactions with this eBay seller are
covered by purchase protection against fraud and description errors.
For your safety, this account was locked today, for 30 days time.
The
seller is unable to withdraw any money from it, within this period.
Should you need a refund for this transaction, the insured amount
will
be taken from the seller's purchase protection account and sent to
you.
The refund is sent to your bank account, or by check or money order.
The way you are refunded is at your choice. You have 30 days from
the
above verification date to request a refund. Refund requests are

CONDITIONS TO BE MET BEFORE YOU MAY ASK FOR A REFUND
Here are the situations suitable for a

after the payment was received;

Team (FIT) to promote safe use of our platforms, and to collaborate
with law enforcement throughout the world to enforce policies,
prosecute fraudsters and help keep our Community safe.
