How to keep scammers away from bidding/buying on ebay?
I'm trying to sell an iPhone on eBay. Keep getting scammer bidding or buying the product and not paying for it. They keep asking me for my PayPal email address. I told them to pay it with the Pay Now button, then they never pay or respond. I keep having to open unpaid item case and keep having to relist the phone. How do I keep away these people, so legitimate buyers can bid on it?
Simple. A fixed price listing with immediate payment required. If they don't pay the listing continues. See link below.
Set the buyer requirements so you don't accept overseas bids (most scammers are overseas) and you don't accept bids from anyone without a linked PayPal account as again most scammers don't have PayPal

You will still get scammers but a lot fewer. The two biggest targets of scammers are phones and laptops
You can't. You can limit buyers to your country only. You can block bidders who have negative feedback. Put in the listing, serious bidders only, or immediate payment required. A bidder does not have to ask for your Paypal address. He will have it when he buys the item. Don't go outside of Ebay to make a sale. You can switch to fixed price instead of auction.
- What is a good bidding website? I'm going into 6th grade and I want to get an iPhone and a MacBook, but both of those from the apple store are to expensive. I have looked at a few bidding websites like bid cactus and some other ones. I know some tricks to. But I was wondering if I should even do the bidding, and what are the best bidding websites?
- Should I throw away my fake iPhone 6s or keep it? I bought fake iPhone 6s from a guy for $120 but then after I realized it was fake I don't know what to do or where to turn
- Iphone - buying an iphone offline from Apple and buying a sim only? Does it not work out cheaper, to buy the handset offline, and have a sim only contact and buy a nano chip separately? if you buy it from the apple store do you have to pay vat? what is the cache?
- ICloud scammers, scary? About 3 weeks ago I lost my iphone 6s today i have an very old phone sorta like a Nokia 3310 for the moment with a new number. About 3 days ago i've been getting these weird text msg's saying that my iPhone 6s Grey 16gb has been found and could be picked up if i enter my icloud name and password through a link provided in the text. I don't believe it's true but how TF did these creepy scammers get my new numbers? I'm kinda freaking out.
