Won a bid, but smells like scam

Hello everyone,

I just won a bid for a 4gb player, sold by mensan666 on ebay.
Luckily enough, going through the feedback I found a link to your site, and reading through the messages I got very suspicious about the item I was about to pay for.
What should I do now?
By the way, I just sent an email to the seller telling him that I am aware of the scam and that I would prefer to avoid the entire formal complaint issue
Thanks ,

Clemens

clemens123 , for a start, 4GB does not exists yet, so likely it is a hacked player. mensan666 is a known blacklist seller in this forum.

i'll suggest that you not pay for the player, as it'll end up arriving hacked, and you'll get a refund. Also you need to pay for the postage to and fro, plus all the time wasted.

Thank you for the suggestion and sorry for the late reply.
All the best,
