Bogus USA/UK hybrid addresses

[HannaHolly]

I've seen examples of half USA/ half UK fake addresses more and more both here and on Feepay- and I'm sure they all trace back to Nigeria!

I think there is some random address generator software out there that the Nigerian scammers are using- it probably fools automated address checkers on the big sites (Amazon/Ebay etc..) for both UK and USA. It only gets spotted when a 'human' checks it!

My advice to anyone who gets a bidder with one of these crazy Miami/Essex type hybrid addresses is report them to EBID straight away- plus post their user IDs here so sellers can blackball them pending their suspention

yea I have had several bids/buy nows from those kind of members and virtually all of them no mater were they say they are from sooner or later end up wanting you to ship to there store, brother, mother uncle or whatever reason in Nigeria or I even had one for Singapore.

All they do is take up your time. Most of them (if you look) have date joined usually just a day or two before they mad the bid, many just a few hours before.

TOO MUCH FUN!!
