redskinfan	posted on March 26, 2001 05:21:37 PM I recently won an auction for a cd on ebay. The seller sends me a long form to fill out where I have to put my user name and password in order to have my item shipped. Is this a scam???

lanetzliving	posted on March 26, 2001 05:41:54 PM Hello, I would email him and let him know that you will not give him your password and send a cc to safeharbour. I have no idea why he would even ask for this information but under no circumstances give it to them!!!!!!!!!!!

redskinfan	posted on March 26, 2001 05:45:29 PM I'm scared he'll rate me bad. I'm just starting to sell and I have no negatives with my new name. I won't give him my password though. Has anyone else had this happen to them??
jrodgers	posted on March 26, 2001 05:59:08 PM The only thing you should give him is your name, mailing address, method of payment and date payemnt was sent. If he leaves you negative feedback you can respond with "he asked for my password & I wouldn't give it."
