[Elecraft] Way OT - eBay - HELP

[peter gerba]

Hi Ya;

I don't normally post on here but I thought I would add a bit to the paypal
thing; this is OT but hope Eric won't mind.

Some friends recently inherited a home from a relative who passed away. The
home was sold and the furniture was made available to the siblings. The
remaining, unwanted furniture was put on ebay, the proceeds to be split
among them.
My friend received a call from Santa Clare County demanding tax from the
ebay sales. The State of California is now involved. When the tax people
were asked about this small sale of tables and chairs etc. My friend was
told that paypal had reported the sales to the county as being over $500/mo.
for several months and they wanted their cut.

pete, kn6bi

OK people. Listen up and listen up good.

DON'T have anything to do with PayPal until you have read the sites
www.paypalwarning.com and www.paypalsucks.com - then look into the
many class-action and individual lawsuits against PayPal and then and
only then will you be equipped to decide if you want them to own a
piece of your life.... forever.

THEN, if you get SPAM from PayPal, forward it with full headers to
spoof at ebay.com You see, PayPal is owned by Ebay therefore all PayPal
scams and spoofs are actually done by Ebay.

Anything newsworthy, go to your news media right away - if it bleeds
it leads and PayPal/Ebay make plenty of people do just that, all
accounts cleaned out and the victem left living under a bridge and
begging for a living.
