Default "What a great success" I feel good about this.

Hi,

I sent an email to a seller on ebay listing a 4GB MP3/MP4 player, I informed him of the scam and this website I also asked him if he could tell me the type of flash chip in his players and the code on it. He did this and it was a Hynix chip with a code for a 1GB chip. I sent him a picture of this chip from the Hynix website and its corresponding memory compacity.

He was shocked by my findings and closed down his listing for the player, GREAT!!. I feel quite good that someone actualy took this serious enough to take this action.

On the downside I contacted a buyer that was buying a hell of a lot of these players on ebay, it turns out he was re-selling them back on ebay for a small profit. I told him about the scam and that his 4GB players were more than likely hacked. His reply was he had so many that he could'nt check all of them, and that he would carry on selling them. I will get back to you on the sellers name.

Anyway this is what happens on ebay, after you have sent abouth 5 to 6 messages on ebay you get blocked and cannot send anymore for about 24 hrs. for some reason ebay says this is for security reasons. what makes me laugh is that they stop you doing good, but ebay dont stop people doing bad like the scum who sell these hacked Nano clones, it makes you sick!!

By for now.
