Am I being scammed?

[katelynnree0]

Hi, I’m new to selling on here and had a buyer message me and say they want to pay using an echeck and need my full name, address, and email. They also provided me with their phone number and wants me to call them to “work out a deal.” It seems very sketchy to me and I’m worried it might be a scammer. Any advice? I haven’t given out any of the information he’s asked for or called him.

     Your instincts serve you well. Add this person to your BBL, erase the messages and do NOT contact them via any method.

Stay away from any transaction outside of ebay.

It is a big, fat SCAM.  Do not reply to the message.  Ignore the message entirely.  Scammers go after new sellers but you foiled this one by being a smart cookie.  😊

As you gain experience, you'll be pestered less and less by these idiots.  But any time you're in doubt, come here and someone will try to help.
