Hi guys,
Just saw a few postings on eBay. Is it too good to be true? Seller is toybox-world. 4 or more speedmasters 145.012-67 for bidding. Same pics but with the watches in different locations. Others include 105.003 speedmasters and Heuer Monaco. There is also a link to buy at USD 3,000 or other currencies. Scam or real…

Scam. For sure.

This part of the description is particularly fishy as it attempts to take one from eBay to another website; deals-pawn.us. I wouldn’t open that url for the world...

IF YOU ARE READY 100% TO BUY IT NOW FOR ABOVE PRICE INLUDED SHIPPING PLEASE OPEN THE LINK DAILY DEALS

Definite scam - there’s another thread on this somewhere - these are hacked eBay accounts and whatever you do don’t go to the link!

Might be a good idea to remove the actual hotlink from the thread.

Oh I've seen this Schad Husky speedy around for ages. I think at one point it was actually legit then the seller's account got hacked. IIRRC the thread title was "another sad example of account takeover"

Edit: found it- https://omegaforums.net/threads/example-of-account-takeover-on-ebay.78859/
Apparently my memory inserted "sad" in

Have seen these many times. Especially that Ed White. Obviously a scam

If 2 days left and the bid is at €11 on such a watch it's not even a question. Run as fast as you can....but report it to eBay before you do that.
