I have received a "Second Chance" offering on the CFMA auction accordion (I was an early bidder.) I have just spoken with Larry Miller and he has the accordion, there is no "second chance" and he has no idea who sent that email. I have a name on the email, and it looks legit, but fortunately I know it's not. Be careful out there, Braves!
Re: BEWARE! EBAY SCAM ON CFMA AUCTION ACCORDION!!!!
Thanks, Chuck.
I was just getting ready to post the same warning. I was the second bidder (whew! Finally had to give up.) and have received four "Second Chance" offers and several other offers for an "identical" item (LOL). I was going to call Larry but you beat me to it. I have reported one of the scammers to eBay because it came directly to my eBay mailbox. The message conveniently said "reply direct to sender's email address" so that's how I knew it was a scam. Yes, eBay can be a dangerous stomping ground.
