I posted my ad on buysell.com to sell my p910i for $750 and there are 3 people want immediate purchase for the item. One of them say he will pay it by bidpay and say he will give me $1000 in total for the phone and the shipment(about $200 by Fedex since he want it to be ship to Nigeria west Africa). Should I trust him? anything I need to be aware?
Thank you for your help!!!!

If you're in any bit of doubt, don't do it. This also sounds too fishy anyways.

its a scam!!! and no bidpay is not as safe as u think... never ever send money orders on ebay... ebay says so themselves as a warning... oh an look at the buyers referrals as well...

You should never accept money from a source you don't potentially trust.

I usually accept nothing but paypal. If those people have the credit cards or bank account to open a bidpay account, they should be able to open a paypal one too, if u trust paypal.

Ok, but he is the one sending me money order. Does it make any difference?

Listen to what people are saying. Do a search for Nigeria scam. It is a SCAM.

He will send fake money order. By the time your bank finds out he will be long gone.

Dont ask any more questions unless you just want to educate yourself. Dont consider that this might be legit for one more minute!!

why does a person that owns a phone worth $750 not know about this?
