It is a scam. Do not sell anything to anyone in Nigeria. Almost all of these are scams.

No no no no no.....Don't ever give out your paypal address for an Ebay auction if the person is not the winner of your auction. This is a total scam!!! If you go through the proper format that Ebay has set up, you are far less likely to get screwed.

That is a scam! DO NOT give your info to this person. If he wants it so bad tell him to bid on item or send you a money Order.Why would you care where his son lives, He is just trying to give you a story.

If he wants it, he can purchase it through ebay, like anyone else. Your payment details should be on your auction site. If he's trying to get around doing it that way, tell him to GTFO.
