Strange message from Ebay member

[mojjax]

I'm selling a German Mark on Ebay & I get this message from a member , I'm not sure what he's talking about -

Dear mojjax,

Dear Friend,
I want to the 1923 years, 100,000 face value Germany Mark. The detail i want is:
1. I want to 1,000 pieces.
2. each 20 pages must be consecutive number.
3. the grade is AUNC or UNC, little bit lower than AUNC, UNC also fine.
4. each 20 pages has a seal, just like a paper tape.
If you can find 50 packs of 20 with the wrapper, all consecutive it also fine, each 20 do not need relationship, also it doesn't matter from different sources. The only condition is each 20 must be consecutive, and grade is AUNC or UNC, little bit lower also can, please help find it as soon as well. i will give a high price more than $50,000. You also can ask your friend to help find. I really need this item, you also can get a good profit, so contact me on eBay or write e-mail, 1909303058 at qq.com, thank you very much.

You really need to report that to ebay. And don't respond your account may go negative really fast. Just report it, change your passwords and be done with it.

Scam...I used to sell Airpumps and would get them sometimes...As mentioned, Report to Ebay

Usally anytime someone starts a sentence these days with " Hello Freind"...BEWARE!

Sounds like he used a language translator from the internet. That's why is sounds so funny. I think the guy is just a collector looking for something specific and he's throwing out a few lines to see if he can get a bite. He saw that you had a couple German Notes listed and that's what prompted it. That's my thoughts on it.

I agree with diggummup .

He is looking for a large amount of Mint or near mint consecutive Numbered Bills
(1923 , 100,000 face value German Mark's.)

The Translator he used was not very good at predictive text.

Ignore unless you can help him of course.

Definite scam, do not reply!! { especially requesting your phone number like that }

If you do sell to him, he'll probably end up withdrawing his payment through paypal or in whatever way he pays right after you ship, and you won't end up getting any money in the end at all...

some people also just message everyone selling in a particular category if they are looking for one item. I was once selling a WWII good conduct medal and got a weird form letter message from some guy wanting to buy any nazi memorabilia I had. Regardless though, that message sounds pretty scammy.

Don't reply or ebay message him to post his shopping list elsewhere.
