Now me Mr. I cant be scammed just came so close to being scammed all because I am a hotheaded Latin.:mad

Here is how it works, I bought a cell phone battery about 4 days ago. Well I got the battery and have been using it for almost a day now.

Today 4 days after I paypaled for it I get an email from the people that I bought it from saying they were sorry but they undercharged me for shipping, and that I had to submit an extra $2.00 or they would post negative feedback on me.

Well I immediately blew my top and hit the if you think this email was sent in error click here link and download the form to complain.

Now I was so mad:mad I dint do any of usual check to check the links, to trace the mail nothing I wanted satisfaction Now!!!

2 seconds after I clicked the link Norton popped up and said no no bad file you are trying to download and open... (I love Norton)

Then it dawned on me why on earth would a company that goofed threaten you with negative feedback. Good way to kill a customer relationship.

Well guess what I got 1 hour later another email from the same company saying it was their goof and they owed me $2.00 if I would please download the form again and fill out my credit card number so they could credit me the $2.00.

They are getting craftier gang watch your backs.

I contacted the original company and they said I was about the 100th person to email, and they were sorry but they never sent out any emails.

As I always tell the grandkids Take a deep breath and think once think twice think don't drive on the pavement. Dont blow your top its a scam calm dont and then deal with it.:b
 
Thanks for the warning. We must get at least 1 scam email from crooks using Paypal or Ebay like links.

I use the same method I use on DH & kids - count to 10 and walk away.
 
I got one 2 days ago stating in was a response to "question to seller." It stated I asked a seller how much shipping would be to Illinois. I do not live in Illinois! It is a shame how carefully we all have to watch our email now. Some of these scams are getting real good.:(
