Guest guest Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 I got an email about something that was posted on ebay, but the answer is in German. I took German in high school a few decades ago and it's not helping at all. LOL Thanks. Green Blessings Patty Corapi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used one of those free translators on the web. It did a good enough job to translate email so I could understand the person's response. I was asking about an item on ebay that the person in Germany had for sale, but it was actually a fraud. Somebody had hacked the German person's account. I knew it was too good a deal. You would have thought when I contacted Ebay about the sale, they would have known. But atleast they were smart enough to tell me not to bid on it since I hadn't received an answer. Once again, thanks. Patty Corapi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Yeah, you have to watch out for ebay. They also say watch out for items that doesn't use PayPal or is paid through Ebay directly and ask you to send your credit card info directly to the seller. There have been several people get taken that way. Michele Robles > > Thank you for your offer.
