Dear PPCGeeks

I am a newbie. Yesterday, I won the bidding for touch pro.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=120356089280

But I saw some threads about scam for touch pro here using insurance like Asurion and bad ESN.
So I sent messages via ebay.

Dear ********

I am a winner for your touch pro ebay bidding.
I have a question about your product because I heard some sad stories about touch pro bidding in the HTC communities.
You advertise it is clear ESN and I guess you have your touch pro now. So I hope I can activate it now. Can I check whether ESN is clear?

If you do not mind, could you tell me how you get it? Because some buyers in ebay reported they got a replacement for insurance like Asurion, I am worried about legit problem. I heard they got the refund from paypal and FBI investigates these cases as an insurance fraud.
If you tell me these information, I feel more comfortable to purchase it.
Thank you for giving a chance and
happy new year.

But he refuse to check a ESN because of duplication possibility.

------------------
Sorry as if you read more on the net people can duplicate this esn to load into other phones. this phone is 100% clean. I have a clean ebay record. i assure there will be no problems.

So I sent a message again and I am waiting his response.

Ok.
I understand you are worried about ESN duplication. If I pay via paypal, can you tell me ESN asap?

Can you give me a the one more box picture which
include a paper with your ebay name "scottydont07"?

Can you confirm that it is not from insurance company and that it is the legitimate product?
I will pay soon if you confirm these.


Recently, I heard even Powersellers who got more than 1000 positive feedback are under the FBI investigation.

Sorry for your inconvenience.

-----------------------
Am I nervous or overreacting?
It is a first time to buy a phone in Ebay.
I do not know how to avoid a scam.

I need your opinion about this transaction.
Thank you very much.
