Default Are You A Catfish????

I know this does not have anything to do with Ebay or Amazon but has anyone on here ever watched the MTV show called Catfish? That show is addicting lol Its like someone creating a stealth Facebook or Twitter account lol I would never do something like that but some of the things that people do online is CRAZY. If you sell online then for the most part, you spend alot of time online, so my question is HAVE U EVER BEEN CATFISHED OR FOUND LOVE ONLINE? LOL Have u found love on Ebay or Amazon? LMAO I am laughing but the crazy thing is I know for a fact that these type of scenario has happened before. Can you imagine a seller falling in love with a buyer on Ebay? LMAO Buyer says, "How much for those logs?". Seller says, "Which one?" Buyer says, "The one between your legs" lol Next month they are married AHAHAHAH

You and your weird questions...

Catfished: Being deceived over facebook as the deceiver professed their romantic feelings to his/her victim, but isn't who they say they are.

Hi bossman!!! I already know the definition of Catfish but was just interested if anyone found love on EBay or Amazon also lol Everyone is searching for something to sell on EBay and I think the best thing to sell is something that everyone looks for, its bad economy bullet proof, which is love lol I will sell love on EBay. Ladies tell all your lady friends that I am selling love on EBay so prepare to bid lol If all u bid is 5 dollars then u only get 5 dollars of love which is rated pg but if u bid 10,000 then u get rated-r love lmao ahahaha

Ouch!!

I used to buy NFL jerseys from Kathleen in China. She would also say how much she loves me and how I was "dear friend". I then googled the name where I was sending western union payments to and found his facebook page, as a bisexual teenage guy. I still bought the jerseys from him, but my emails were much shorter. :-)

One thing that I noticed over the years is that if one of your stealth accounts is supposedly an old woman and you post a picture of a random old woman on your ebay and pretend it was you that people are much nicier to you. You are less likely to get ripped off and people remember to give you good feedbacks. Im not saying it will work all the time but from my own experience it has worked for me all the time. Even when I send a package late I simply tell them that im an old widow lady and they tell me its fine and still give me good feedbacks.

I've done several test with Male / Female Profiles and usually 9 out of 10 times the female profile on ebay will outsell the Male Sellers Account.

As you mentioned about shipping late, it does work to be a female seller since you can always say, I have kids, single Mother..blah blah and they will usually be sympathetic to you!!

No but I got a call on one of my stealth phones asking for rsot and I told them exactly where you can be found.

You must not get any news up there in the frozen tundra as that was on the news.

My voice on the phone ALWAYS does the trick on customers and elsewhere, I have that kind of voice, sweet and innocent. I have calmed disputes and even got mis-sent packages swapped between customers. I have bought stuff and changed my mind and called them asking for refund and they do it and say 'no problem sweetheart' MUHAHAHA..

kinda silly to misrepresent yourself on a dating site that badly, it is a waste of everyones time, the person is not going to suddenly decide to overlook they are the wrong gender..weird
