    Item 390118518643. However, somebody would have to be REALLY stupid to
    think a genuine Vincent Rapide is going to be on offer at £6,000. Same
    technique as previous examples - after a second or two the page gets
    reloaded from the phishing site (which i think is hosted by iWeb
    technologies, a company that is well known as a host for phishing). It
    presents another good example of the need to be careful of "bargains" on
    ebay.

    I am watching that without entering any details at all, the only dodgy bit i
    can see is go to ask a question & it asks me to sign in.

    I'm not sure i understand what you are saying about this scam.

    The first site cant be a phishing site, it's ebay surely?

    Or can they **** you without you signing in now?

    As you can see the only way to buy this bargain is to ask a
    question...
    Its a copy of this auction:

    Yeah, but why will it let me watch it in my ebay so easily? Very obvious due
    to price, but if these cunts where smarter, they would bag thousands.

  5. TMack explained on 14/11/2009 :
    The item appeared for a few seconds, then OpenDNS redirected my browser
    with a warning about it being a phishing attempt.
