Looks like a few people have come forward regarding being scammed on Ebay for Xbox 360 consoles. A woman was swindled out of 600 bucks for an IMAGE of the Xbox 360 only, wheras another man paid $800 for the box alone - we are sure they didn't do this on purpose!

Following our post yesterday about a woman who was swindled out of over $600 for a worthless photo of an Xbox 360, a man with a similar story contacted us through our tips form.
Back in November, an auction called "Xbox 360 Prem Retail Box" was placed up on eBay; included in very fine print at the end of the page was the disclaimer that "no xbox36o is included within the package", though the seller would throw in a free PS1.
The man who contacted us won the auction in the belief that he would soon have himself a brand new Premium Xbox 360, and the bidding was closed at $675. Further stop payments that weren't stopped pushed his total cost up to $826.
