Hi, I'm a newbie here but just wanted to say that I am currently 'dealing' with 'Sarah' in Dundee in response to an eBay ad for a vintage Morris Tourer. I buy and sell a few cars on eBay so wasn't over-ally suspicious by her suggestion to pay by bank transfer as I have bought/ sold overseas this way. I am ashamed to say that I fell for it up to the point of attempting to transfer the payment (put on hold by my bank [Barclays] until Wednesday). This morning Barclays left my daughter a message for me to ring them as my account had been frozen - I have to wait until tomorrow to find out if they have had anything! (bites nails....). I am still getting emails from 'Sarah' (I haven't said anything to her), She claims to own the transporter Co. Shiply (a transport auction site!). Their latest account [Barclays] is:

Beneficiary: N. Calen
Bank Name: Barclays
Account no: 93780929
Sort Code: 20-94-48
City: London
Country: United Kingdom


If there is any advice you guys could give me please? or any info. you need from me, I'm happy to help. Best wishes James
