This is the latest messaging I have had with the seller on eBay
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Dear colmado_naranja,
I see the auction has been pulled (again), also I got a bunch of warnings that you might be trying to get my account info etc.
I sure hope you are legit or at least not trying to cause harm
If you can tell me anything about what is going on I'd appreciate it
____________ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Dear ____
Hi. Don't worry, I'm not a scammer. You can check with other eBayers that have made posts all over the internet in support of me and that eBay is now to the point that they will say anything to cancel my auctions.
There will be no more auctions for Obama?s b.c., but this may interest you. Ebay item # 160345795373. ?Autographed photo of Smith and Andylenny abroad.?
Again you?ll have to search by listing number for the first several hours until the title becomes searchable.
I'm turning the b.c. over to WorldNetDaily and Joseph Farah. Thanks for your support. You are appreciated.
- colmado_naranja

I had recieved this from eBay earlier:
Hello ______________
Our records show that you recently received an email from colmado_naranja through the Ask Seller a Question or Contact eBay Member features. This email may be fraudulent and an attempt to do one of the following:
- Obtain your eBay password - Gain access to your eBay account - Use your eBay account for fraudulent activity - Set up an outside-of-eBay transaction which may be fraudulent
This kind of email is often called a "phish" or "phishing attempt," and the people who send them are known as "phishers." Phishers use these methods to try to get your personal information, such as user names, passwords and credit card details. Because the emails may sometimes come through the eBay system, the phisher may seem to be trustworthy and have a good reason to contact you.
***Important - Protect Your Personal Information*** - Don't reply to the sender either through the eBay system or your personal email account.
- Don't open any links or cut and paste any Web addresses into your browser from the phishing email.
- If you think you may have entered personal information such as your password, Social Security Number, or credit card information into a website based on a request from a phishing email, you need to act *immediately* to protect yourself from identity theft. For detailed instructions about the steps to take, please go to:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/account/protecting-identity-theft.html
***What to Do If You've Already Sent an Item or Payment*** If you've already sent payment to or shipped an item to a person who asked that you take the transaction outside of eBay, we recommend you take the following steps:
1. Contact the payment service that you used to make the purchase. If you paid by credit card, most card issuers provide consumer protection in online fraud cases.
2. Please complete the "Item Bought Outside of eBay" form or the "Item Sold Outside of eBay" form. To find these forms, please go to:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/tp/isgw-fraud-non-ebay.html
Click the "Item Bought Outside of eBay form" or the "Item Sold Outside of eBay form" link. Enter your information in the page that follows, and then click the "Submit" button. The information you provide will enable us to work more effectively with law enforcement in case an investigation occurs.
3. If you were the seller and shipped the item to a fraudulent buyer, contact the shipping carrier that you used. That company may be able to assist you further. If you sent the item through the U.S. Postal Service, file a mail fraud claim. To do so, please visit:
http://www.usps.com/postalinspectors/fraud/
4. Contact the local law enforcement where you sent the payment or item. The authorities where the seller or the buyer lives might be able to provide additional assistance. To find local law enforcement, go to:
http://www.usacops.com/
***Additional Account Safety Tips*** To protect your email and your eBay account, we recommend that you always follow these safety tips:
- Do *not* respond to the sender either through the eBay system or your email account. An offer to buy or sell an item outside of eBay is against eBay policies, might be fraudulent, and will not be covered by eBay protection programs.
- If you received what appears to be a Second Chance Offer for an item that you recently bid on, check My Messages to make sure the offer is legitimate. Second Chance Offers appear in My Messages with a blue background and a subject stating, "eBay Second Chance Offer for Item...."
- If you receive a Second Chance Offer directly in your personal email and it is not in My Messages, it is not a legitimate offer.
- If a Second Chance Offer appears in My Messages with a subject line of "Message from eBay Member," it is not a legitimate offer. Before responding to a Second Chance Offer, make sure it contains both the blue background in My Messages and the subject line of "eBay Second Chance Offer for Item?"
- Never pay for an item you've bought on eBay by using instant cash or wire transfer services such as Western Union or MoneyGram. These payment methods are unsafe on eBay. It's against the eBay Accepted Payments policy for a seller to request payment using these methods. For more information about payments that are accepted on eBay, please go to:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/accepted-payments-policy.html

eBay Trust & Safety team
It IS Inspector Smith’s channel, but since he has not uploaded any videos, the default video is the last one he favorited.
When you go to the link, click on the word “Uploads” to the right of the yellow ‘subscribe’ box.
Hopefully that clears things up about that.
Here is your post:
You said Funny how you knew they were referring to you when troll was mentioned.
Well, its not strange or weird, when you see all the Obama Derangement Syndrome types here always using the same word with me... LOL...
As I said, its a simple definition for what the Obama Derangement Syndrome types use for troll
If you dont agree with me, youre a troll... :-)

Bump.
Trolls are foolish people; not once have they ever changed anyone's mind.
You said — Would you STOP double spacing your comments and making 3 sentences take up half the page. Everyone complains about this and we all know why you do it.

Hey, I never make complaints about how someone wants to place their posts. I mean, there are people who answer by posting pictures, instead of words. But, you’ve never heard me complain about it...
There’s no set format for how someone is to post, so until there is, my advice is to give up on complaining about “how” someone posts...
I guess you’ve never been in on those threads where someone posts a bunch of stuff and never puts in paragraphs. That kind of poster gets complaints, too. I was just in on one of those threads a week or so ago, and the guy was wondering why everyone was griping at him. I told him it’s about “paragraphs”... you must have paragraphs...
And so it is... you must have paragraphs.
Now, as to how you set up your paragraphs, that’s up to the writer...
[... and if you would like a reference to that thread I was just talking about, so you’ll know that I was not just making up that story for you and for this post, I’ll gladly get you the reference... just let me know...]
I lean toward “empty lives” in most cases...
I meant Youtube, not ebay... Oops.
How can you tell they are the same? Ebay scrambles random letters and numbers. They don’t actually do the first and last characters of the name. They used to show the name of the highest bidder, but I’m guessing it led to hostile e-mail if someone was outbid and solicitations to buy outside eBay’s parameters. Now they do the scramble fake-out thing, though your “new” name is the same throughout that particular auction. I have had all sorts of interesting names, and they are not even close to mine. LOL.
Every sentence does not require a new paragraph.
I suggest you take up teaching composition in a college course, then, teaching all these up and coming students... LOL..
He has a quote from my homepage, lol!
!LMAOROF!!!...;0)
You said — Interesting comments on this at gatewaypundit.

Boy, that’s one long list of comments... :-)
