Beware of the eBay Scam

eBay is the best universal marketplace on the internet, you can buy and sell to people that are on the other side of the world.

Most people think that they will be able to tell the difference between a real sale and a fake but it is very difficult to distinguish. Commonly, scammers pose as Nigerians that are out of the country on business or are in the country and sending out an item to a family member overseas.

How To Make Money As An eBay Seller

If you have considered becoming an eBay seller but are not sure whether or not you can turn a profit by doing so, this article is here to help you make that decision. Most people who become an eBay seller really do not take the time to research whether their product is something that will move well on eBay and whether or not they can actually make a profit selling it there. Thankfully you are not one of those people.

Deciding Whether Becoming An eBay Seller Is For You

The first thing you want to look at is whether or not other people are selling the product you plan to market on eBay. If they are, you are going to have to look and see what they have recently been selling at what price, both the high and low, so that you can determine whether you can make money as an eBay seller for that product. If no one else is selling what you have to offer than you may want to look online at other retail outlets to get a good idea of what the pricing for your product is. Compare that with your costs and overhead to determine...

Beware of the eBay Scam

eBay is the best universal marketplace on the internet, you can buy and sell to people that are on the other side of the world. However, the amazing technology opens the door for scam artists as well. No matter how legitimate a seller may seem, the anonymity of the internet creates an open field for the con artist and scam artist.

Most Common eBay Scam

The most common eBay scam occurs when a buyer bids or does a Buy-it-Now on an item and then asks you to immediately ship out the item via express mail. Most people think that they will be able to tell the difference between a real sale and a fake but it is very difficult to distinguish. Commonly, scammers pose as Nigerians that are out of the country on business or are in the country and sending out an item to a family member overseas.

Sometimes they will do the Buy-it-Now option. In order to avoid these sorts of eBay scams, set guidelines when you have that option. For instance, you can make it so the person has to have at least 10 positive feedbacks or whatever number you choose before they can buy it now. You will notice that scammers often have zero feedback or private so others cannot view it. You can also set these qualifications for regular auctions just to be sure.

eBay scammers have gotten smarter because they now even incorporate PayPal. Normally what they will do is send an initial e-mail saying that they have bid on or bought your item and they need you to send it out immediately, via express mail. They say that they sent the money through PayPal but that PayPal will not release the money until they have a tracking number (meaning you shipped it) for the buyer’s security. This is never true! PayPal will never hold your money unless your account is frozen for some reason.

Then the scammers even go so far as to create a fake PayPal e-mail. They will use the PayPal logo and they make the e-mail look as official as possible. They make PayPal’s e-mail explain exactly what their e-mail said only in more sophisticated terminology. Therefore, don’t ever trust an e-mail. First of all, if you’re an experienced user, there are ways to tell the difference. For example, an e-mail from PayPal will be username@PayPal.com whereas a fake e-mail will be PayPal@ Yahoo or Gmail or Hotmail.com. Fake e-mails will never have the PayPal server e-mail, it is impossible. Pay attention to this. Not to mention, in most cases eBay scam artists will send PayPal e-mails with very broken English.

The best and most sure way to know whether or not you have received a payment is by signing into your PayPal. eBay scam artists can send you messages through eBay or through e-mail but they cannot make it appear like you have money in your account if you do not. Never send an item out or take any action until you see that money in your account. Once it is there, it is yours to do whatever you want with. Surprisingly, eBay scammers get away with these sorts of things every day; you’d be surprised how clever they can get. There’s no way to know for sure unless you have the money in your account!

You love to sell items on eBay. Most people do. It is a great way to get some spare cash from items sitting in your home that you have no use for anymore. But if you find yourself listing multiple items daily, and you are trying to make a business out of selling items on eBay, you should try opening an eBay store. An eBay store isn’t for everyone so make sure that you are ready before you open one.

Ready For An eBay Store?

If you are trying to make a business out of selling items on eBay, it might be time to open an eBay store. What you will need first is a good rating. You will need to buy and sell quite a few items before considering a store. Why? This is because people are more willing to buy from someone who has a great rating and a large number of successful sales. If you are low on that totem pole your store will be passed by.

Also, there is a monthly fee to having an eBay store. But with the money that you spend, you will be getting access to great marketing tools, a customizable...
