PayPal scam alert...
7/4/2015 at 8:28 PM
I'm sure this hasn't been the first time, but I wanted to let everyone know that there's a PayPal scammer prowling the site. Basically, you'll be contacted via SMS (in my case, from a Minnesota number) inquiring about your item for sale and then insist that he/she can only pay you (and you only) via PayPal.
If you feel a niggly in your gut that something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't. Unless you know and trust the person, there really isn't any reason for somebody to use PayPal to buy something, especially here on eBrandon.
Be careful and stay safe out there!
