Please post a direct link to the item on ebay, rather than the dodgy 3rd party link you have posted - the site is blocked by my corporate network as undesirable, so I would recommend people not to click on it.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

Are you stating that even after using the 'youverify' service you don't know ?

It would appear then that the service isn't providing a service useful to you.

It's not something we do or get involved in.

It seems that flowerbedhead42 doesn't want to post a direct link to the item, but instead had decided to remove the dodgy link - perhaps the spamming attempt wasn't working the way they thought it would do.

Lets take a little look at flowerbedhead42's only other post on this forum - the app in question is the same one as the link that they removed above.

Has anyone had any success in terms of using it to sell? I've got some uggs but worried about getting less because people think they're fake as they can't actually see them in person.


Time for a little Googling https://www.google.co.uk/#filter=0&q=%2 ... afe=active

Lots of forum posts all by a user calling themselves flowerbedhead42 asking the same question with exactly the same text, with one exception https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/Sel ... uage=en-gb

I've got some oakleys that I want to sell but worried about getting less because people think they're fake as they can't actually see them in person. Any advice would be much appreciated.

The exact same text, but this time has Oakleys to sell rather than flowerbedhead42's Uggs.

How about a look at flowerbedhead42 post today (before they amended it) https://www.google.co.uk/#q=%22Hi+there ... n+eBay:%22

Only one other result this time (but it is early) http://www.amazon.co.uk/forum/amazon?_e ... NKYYQ0NK1M

Can someone on here tell me if they're authentic or not? I don't want to waste my time or money with fakes so any help by someone who knows more would be appreciated. Cheers


Yep you've guessed it, the exact same text and link as flowerbedhead42 posted here.

Looks like you-verify.com are a rather dodgy website that rely on spam as a form of marketing.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
