Someone is using the WPCentral forums to trick US members into giving them unlocks to sell on eBay

[Jessica Lares]

Last month I was contacted by someone looking for an unlock for a device they bought that was "old". They offered to pay for it, and I went ahead and went with the process and successfully got them the code.

It's a week later, and I have yet to receive the payment. Which to be honest, I don't really care, I thought I was doing them a favor.

Well, I found this person's eBay account, and guess what? They're selling unlocks, for the same Lumia I unlocked for them.

They log into the forum everyday to do "business" but have actually never posted on the forums otherwise.

Again, I don't really care, but I don't want this to be happening to anyone else.

Thanks.

Great post Jessica, hope someone higher can report them.

Have you reported the account name to anyone? In a reported post or pm?

I sent a PM to an admin, but they never got back to me. I don't see any of my sent PMs either...

Can I have a link to his ebay?

Please forwarded me the all the PM's you have concerning this. I will be glad to review the situation with you.
