I'm trying to sale on Yahoo auction and receive the same "obviously" fake sale. No one check this, the only way to do this is receive payments through paypal I think, the scammers hate it.

eBay has had a lot of trouble with some of their International sellers and PayPal. I know several eBay Sellers who followed the advice they felt they got from eBay and started dealing with international, drop ship suppliers. It worked so well that the money started to really come in and PayPal, under governmental pressure, had to freeze the accounts for suspicious activity. Consequently, there are a lot of people who now have no eBay (so they are selling on Yahoo and Amazon) and now PayPal account.
That is my understanding, anyway. Peace!
