This is to alert all of you about a "2nd chance offer" scam that just took place with one of my auctions on ebay. The auction was item # 6234080696 ( a QT w/ gum vendor). I don't know how many of my underbidders were contacted, but I do know 2 of them were contacted, offering the machine for their high bid. I have sent emails to all of them, alerting them of this scam, telling them I have never sent a "2nd chance offer". I would contact ebay, but figure this will do more good.

Almost every time I bid on something in excess of $1,000 and don't win it, one of these slime balls sends me one of these things. I have gotten as many as three from different people selling me the same item. Ebay can't stop it and I'm sure people are being taken.
