The scam, (described in the original post), is not limited to ebay. It seems to happen just about anywhere things are advertised to sell, especially internationally. A while ago my wife advertised a horse for sale in a national magazine. The very next day after the magazine came out she got an email from some scammer with a complicated story about sending her a check and shipping the horse to South Africa and so on. A very obvious scam.
