I've forwarded emails from bidders trrying to use stolen credit cards to
ebay, and left feedback saying that they were from Indonesia and using
stolen credit cards, but it still seems to take ebay just long enough for
the guy to actually rip someone off before the account is deleted.

Yeh, and the "Bay of "E", too! had folks fishing for all credit-bank
info,
e-bay loggins, passwords, ect, saying going to freeze account, if don't
submit (and same crap from Paypal)! Best thing can tell you : 1),
Never
answer these (in fact, services will bluntly tell you, they NEVER
REQUEST
SUCH INFO)! , and 2)
MAKE SURE you report these "requests", and send copy of the request(s)
to
the services, at their appeopriate addresses, along with the FULL
PROPERTIES
, of the a**holes Senders address!
This only way to protect self from those fishing to Identity theft/
fraud.

Both ebay and PayPal tell you to FORWARD, un-edited, the complete e-mail
to
one of the following:
They will verify your forward, and, later, verify whether or not the
suspicious e-mail originated from them or not (I've never had an
affirmative
verification).
