Good lord. So not only do they give out their phone number on a public forum, they give out their name and address in public feedback (not to mention the abuse)
And then say there is a scam
If the OP were to quit happily posting their personal details all over public places, they might have less issues
Scammer's dream come true, inviting them to scam and share
The only people who will call you WILL be scammers
It has a big highlighted banner saying DO NOT give out personal information
This is a member to member forum visible to everyone
eBay staff do not read here
You say there is a scam going on, but then give out your phone number for every scammer reading here to see and use
There are scammers on this forum, who will tell you they are eBay and they will handle it
They are NOT, these scammers should have been removed and banned but instead are allowed to stay here, keep posting and to keep getting details from members
DO NOT speak to anyone contacting you claiming to be eBay
They are NOT
Legit eBay staff do not read here and certainly NEVER reply to people here

While I'm sure your problem has already been mentioned here
I can assure you that the members here know FAR more about REAL scams than eBay agents who read from a script.
Apart from being against eBay policy, your phone number is shown in your 'sold' listing for scammers to see.
Looking at your feedback left for others !!!.......You've given your name and address for scammers to see
Scammers around the world see all of this information and share and /or sell all the details.
These details are often harvested to be used at a later date.
Think identity fraud.
So what exactly is this SCAM that you mention ?

·6 months agoTo add, is it about the fishing rod you sold?
If so
Is it a legit scammer buyer?
Or is it an issue with not being signed up to Managed Payments and verified to sell?

What scam is going on?
Have you purchased from a scammer seller?
Is there an issue with a listed item?
