Welcome To
ozme's Place


Come On In!


Do you need help with an eBay problem and can't find the answer?
Or maybe you just want to talk to a neutral party to see what advise they might offer?

Either reason, call me, and I'll do my best to answer your questions and help with most any eBay related problem.
If I don't know the answer, I will help you find someone or someplace that can.

A little about me:
My eBay ID is ozme, but most everyone just calls me oz.
I am a stay-at-home housewife, Mother and Grandmother.
I live in East Central Missouri with my husband Roger, my Mother-In-Law and our dog Maxx.
I have been an eBay member (buyer and seller) since May 1998 and have been helping other eBay members with their problems, via The Emergency Contact Board, since 1999.
I am on the The Emergency Contact Board pretty much every day from the time I get up, until I go to bed.....except for quick trips to town or general household chores, etc that may take me away from the computer for a short time.
I offer this help because I enjoy helping other eBay members with their problems.

Remember that I do not work for ebay in any way, shape, or form.
I am an ebay member just like you.

If you decide to call, please try to remain calm and collected while detailing your problem.
Panic only breeds confusion.

Cell Phone: 573-291-5670 (AT&T)
If I am not at home when you call or differences in our time zones prevent it, you are more than welcome to call back at another time.

**Please be aware of the differences in time zones when calling, by refering to the clock below for current Missouri time, and try to call between 10:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. Missouri time.

BUYERS - PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST VEHICLE AND OTHER SCAMS!
READ THIS BASIC NEED-TO-KNOW INFORMATION


eBay DOES NOT send e-mails telling people to pay using Western Union, MoneyGram or any other off-the-wall form of payment or wire transfer thru ANY of the following venues.
* eBay Motors
* Craigslist
* Kijiji.com
* Auto Trader
* My Space
Etc........................

*Spoof Email Tutorial: http://pages.ebay.com/education/spooftutorial/

The use of Western Union, MoneyGram, etc., to pay for auctions was banned by eBay in early 2006
. Western Union wire transfer money is non-refundable and untracable and can be routed and picked up anywhere in the world as long as the person picking up the money knows the transaction number and the key question and answer.
This money could possibly be going to terrorists abroad or even funding terrorist sleeper cells right here in the U.S.

Craigslist > About Scams > Personal Safety Tips: http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams

You can sidestep would-be scammers by following these common-sense rules:

* ONLY DEAL LOCALLY WITH FOLKS YOU CAN MEET IN PERSON - follow this one simple rule and you will avoid 99% of the scam attempts on craigslist.
* NEVER WIRE FUNDS VIA WESTERN UNION, MONEYGRAM or any other wire service - anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.
* FAKE CASHIER CHECKS & MONEY ORDERS ARE COMMON, and BANKS WILL CASH THEM AND THEN HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE when the fake is discovered weeks later.
* CRAIGSLIST IS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY TRANSACTION, and does not handle payments, guarantee transactions, provide escrow services, or offer "buyer protection" or "seller certification".
* NEVER GIVE OUT FINANCIAL INFORMATION (bank account number, social security number, eBay/PayPal info, etc.)
* AVOID DEALS INVOLVING SHIPPING OR ESCROW SERVICES and know that ONLY A SCAMMER WILL "GUARANTEE" YOUR TRANSACTION.

~~~***~~~***~~~***~~~***~~~***~~~


Who should I notify about fraud or scam attempts?
* FTC toll free hotline: 877-FTC-HELP (877-382-4357)
* FTC online complaint form (http://www.ftc.gov)
* Canadian PhoneBusters hotline: 888-495-8501
* Internet Fraud Complaint Center (http://www.ic3.gov)
* Non-emergency number for your local police department.
If you suspect that an item posted for sale on craigslist may be part of a scam, please email the details to abuse@craigslist.org and be sure to include the URL (or eight-digit post ID number) in your message.
