    [Help] Will this scam work?

    Well, don't know if theres a thread about this scam or not. But I'm wondering if this will work.

    1. Make WTS on markee
    2. Talk to chinese scammer
    3. Recieve (for an example) 400$ on fake paypal
    4. Make a 400$ sell on ebay with your legit paypal
    5. Buy it with your fake paypal, thus sending the money to your legit.

    ALL USING A PROXY

    If I follow the scam like that, will I get the 400$? I know this is basically illegal and direct theft of money.

    I Would make sure your ass is covered if you go that route and make sure you also have the fake paypal verified. I would sell something legit on ebay btw, I wouldn't make a 400 $ sale on something like a pack of baseball cards. Would look fishy and I wouldn't touch the money for awhile to see what happened...risky.
    Always willing to help, Feel free to PM

    No. This would not work. If they recover the money then it goes through all the paypals that the money has been through to recover it. No matter what.

    It also takes a while for the $400 to clear the paypal. Anything over $100 take an "investigation".

    It might work, only use a proxy when your using the fake paypal. Make a few sales with your legit paypal and make it look like the fake paypal is having a buying spree.

    The best thing to do with that money is to spend it immediately on wow gold and then just resell the gold, it's the best way to launder it
