Is this a scam attempt?

 Received this from a ebay.service@aol.com urging me to ship… pretty sure it’s scam. Correct?

SCAM EMAIL to get you to go off ebay for the transaction. Ignore.

Yes, totally. Nice job catching this scam...other sellers aren't so lucky.

It is a scam and you got some real cojones to sell such an expensive watch on Ebay.  Your other items you sold are also rather expensive for a small time seller.  Remember that novice sellers like yourself are magnets for scammers.

Good for you. 100% a scam.  @aol.com emails has nothing to do with eBay.

Certainly, the moment I saw the email as @AOL.com I knew there's something wrong, and how it said to ship to a random address. Thanks for the response.

Just thought I should also list the item on Ebay, to gain some awareness to the item, but figured it would also attract of many scammers.

Yep it's a SCAM.   The old " hidden payment " scam. That is where your told you won't see your payment until after you have shipped.  They often ask for overnight shipping to limit the time you have to recall the package in case you discover you have been scammed.

The older scams are making a comeback again.

Definitely the BIGGEST RED FLAG hahah I thought they went bankrupt or something.

I wonder if they used a 14.4 baud modem to send that email, too.
