Hello,

I am a seller on eBay. I was selling a Sony Vaio Desktop.

This person contacted me (email) saying he/she wants to buy it for $625 and so I accepted the deal. I told him he had to buy it now but he said his account had a problem and and that he will send a money order. Now I have done outside ebay deals before so I accpeted. Then I get this email (below) which seemed to be from USPS saying I had to ship before I got money order as a sercurity measure. So it seemed very legit. So I go to FedEx and shipped it. NOW I HAVE NO COMPUTER OR MONEY.

PLEASE CAN ANYONE HELP? I ALREADY CONTACTED USPS BUT NO HELP!

The tracking numbers are(2boxes FEDEX):

7924 8781 1366

7913 3718 6729

Shipped to:

There is no such a service as "USPS Order comfirmation" to verify/approve money orders. The e-mail you got was a scam, a fake. USPS does NOT have accountant.com e-mail address. DO NOT do anything outside e-bay deals. DO NOT do any business with Nigerians.
