Nigerian scam screwed everything up!!!
So long story short i sold an item on ebay (nintendo 3ds used one) and someone bought it but turned out it was those nigerian scammers and ebay saw it and pulled the plug. And me being limited on one item per month in this genre of selling I wasn't able to relist. So I called ebay and they were working on relisting until, they said i needed to verify my identity either fax or phone. I stated fax because I didn't know which information they will ask. But they sent me email below. I don't have the information so I'm going to call them from verification.. but what kind of questions should I be ready for?? Seems that I probally will be redirected to same person dealing with me .. or will it be new person? I will call from registered number though
