Ive been buying computers and PDA's on ebay for a while , While browsing i spotted my perfect laptop a HP HDX 9xxx series 20 incher new in an auction . My suspisions were first raised when i noticed the seller didnt accpt paypal .

Secondly the sellers lack of feedback it seemed to be a dead account from 2003 to just now . Finaly the postal option "Paquete Azul (nacional) hasta 2 kg" The laptop alone weighs 7.5KG :shock:

Ive asked him for a photo of the item showing the serial number and the invoice , Is this cause for concern ?

The item is here http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 0352660254

Yeah, the account could have been hacked. The tell-tale signs of a possible scammer seems quite clear.

Hope you didn't buy the laptop :)
