Dealing anything outside of North America is risky. Especially in those less developped countries.

Just don't do it.
Rather gain less than lose it all.

Western Europe is pretty safe, the UK to be exact, usually stay away from Italy though.

So "anything outside North America is risky" is a bit of a wrong statement.

I've been scammed by Ukranians on ebay when I was still a newbie
ever since then, i've been telling myself

"Never deal with someone outside of US/Canada"

when you guys get a chance, please read this sticky thread and learn from other member's experiences:

Why You Shouldn't Deal With People Outisde North America

I see you are in UK and maybe you are a good seller, but I would avoid transactions with ppl outside or N.A., not only scam, but shipping time and import tax. It's just my personal preference anyway.

BTW, I got this to my e-mail today. Be Aware.
