I sold my ring on ebay and the fraud/scammer acted as PayPal and made a fake email address. The email address is: support@contactpaypalservice.com. HOWEVER, the name (e.g. John) appears as: service@paypal.com.au. Tricky peoople who don't really look (like me). He told me to send him the ring and confirmed that he had "paid" via Paypal.
He instructed me to send it to:

SCAMMER TOOK MY RING VALUED AT $4200 AND MADE ME PAY POSTAGE FOR $200. Never heard from him again. Is there anyway we can report the address to officials in China???!
