[Phono-L] Ebay payment request

[Charlotte Mager]

I have accepted Western Union form overseas buyers and it has worked. for
me. You are e-mailed a number to go and get your money at a Western Union
outlet. You can get cash rather than a check from a legitimate Western Union
transaction. You need to bring ID with you. You should decline when the
buyer wants to send you more than the amount for the item and asks for a
partial refund.
 Good Luck
