When you win an Auction, on eBay, why does eBay, ask you, to ask the Seller, for their Bank Account Data? |
Is this new, or have I just overlooked this, in the past? When I do "Ask" the Seller for this information, I do not get a response... I have bought almost 200 items on EBAY and I have NEVER been asked to ask a seller about their bank account data. This is the whole reason for Paypal. I have won several items and paid for them just this week and have 2 active selling listings at this time. The seller is not going to respond to a request like that because it is absurd! I would NEVER give that information out to a person who won one of my auctions. Sounds to me as if you are being scammed and are at risk of having your account hacked or your identity stolen. Report this to ebay immediately. An email message from eBay: * Never asks you to provide financial account numbers, passwords, or other sensitive information through email. If eBay requests information from you, a copy of that email will be in the My Messages box in My eBay. For more information, see Using My Messages. Source(s): http://pages.ebay.com/help/confidence/sp... They don't! It sounds like you're being scammed. Most sellers use PayPal and if you want to be a buyer on eBay, you should too. I've never heard of that and I sell and buy on ebay. That must be something new. They don't. Who would give out their bank #'s> a member |
