Suspicious message accompanying an offer
Summary: mik-3334 received a suspicious message along with an offer, asking them to send item videos before payment via email. They are unsure whether to proceed, click anything, or simply let it expire.
Here is the message:
ou are Mailing this item to USA so accept my offer and send me the Item videos to my email before i make payment And that is my Gmail.com email below and I will respond to Ur mail after I got the video for fast transaction.
Offers remaining:
My question is this; what do I do? I haven't clicked on anything, I haven't accepted, countered, or declined. What do I do? Just let it expire?
Thanks

The buyer doesn't get to tell you what to do.
Follow eBay policies.

Mentor1 month agoHi @mik-3334
This is what I would do...
Don't respond. It sounds like the "buyer" is suggesting an off-eBay transaction which is a policy violation.
Report the message by clicking the three dots at the top-right of the message for sharing an email address.
