baby Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) I recently received an email from a guy called Adrian Pana with the following link: www.my-lego-collection.piczo.com Out of curiosity, my friend who was happen to be a LEGO collector too emailed him on how he got his address (well, he mail him too) and why should he trust him on the above sale items. To my suprise, he replied him: " I contacted the agents from eBay, I entered the [/quote]! I can not send the item first. I have a good feedback too! This is my ebay user: lucianoz2004 . Please tell me in which user you are interested ! I will wait your email Thank You !!!" So, naturally he messaged the ebay user ID above to get more info and at the same time, I asked this Adrian fler to provide me with his address so I can do a COD. Well... the fler din reply ( he was very responsive earlier). Now, so all my friends here know, I am quite sure this is a scam, so beware! Those LEGO sets in the pic look too tempting to be true!!!! Shocked I am trying to find a way to see whether I could lodge a report to the Italian authorities.. This is what Adrian Pana wrote in the About Me detail at his website: Benvenuto al mio Web site ! Il mio nome è Adrian Pana e vivo a Roma, Italia. Sto vendendo la mia accumulazione di lego per raccogliere i fondi necessari per il mio figlio che sta andando passare con un intervento di chirurgia sul suo cervello. Voglio vendere urgentemente gli articoli, questo sono la ragione per la quale non li ho elencati su eBay! Li trasmetto internationaly che per mezzo dell'UPS, io pagherò le tasse di trasporto. Se gradite uno dei miei articoli, selo metta in contatto con prego al seguente email address: my_lego_collection@yahoo.com Grazie ancora e spero che godiate della mia accumulazione ! Welcome to my web-site ! My name is Adrian Pana and I live in Rome, Italy. I am selling my lego collection to raise the neccessary money for my son who is going to pass through an surgery intervention on his brain. I want to sell the items urgently, this is the reason why I did not list them on eBay! I send them internationaly using UPS, I will pay the shipping taxes. If you like one of my items, please contact me at the following e-mail address: my_lego_collection@yahoo.com Thank you again, and I hope you enjoy my collection ! I bet he will be able to sell all his set if he listed on Ebay. So, did any of you receive the same e-mail? Edited October 2, 2008 by baby
Zorro Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 I made a discussion thread about this a few days ago. I am "buying" somthing from him: read his mails and you know enough... Discussion thread NOR EBAY, NOR PICZO did anything yet, I contacted Piczo AGAiN with extensive proof incl. my mails, his mails, a link to my forum thread, etc. I hope they will take action before someone gets cheated...
