That doesn't make sense since it was a different seller that contacted him, not the one he bought it from. You might try contacting ebay and ask them how he got your email address because I thought all information was protected too.

Guy's ID is out of Maryland...Maybe it may ring a bell eBay ID: loveofbaseball55

Obviously, just making everyone aware, in case it is a scam.

Was it a message thru eBay's system or a direct email? If it was an eBay message, they might have found your eBay ID via feedback (left or received) for that item.

There is one way to find out, but its a round about way. If I know someone's Ebay ID I can search for things he has won. But you need to already know the ID. If you also sell things then your ID would show up on those.

I also remember getting a message that is eerily like this one a couple years ago or so right after I purchased a fairly pricey autograph. I remember him telling me he was going to be in my area and could meet me if I was interested...of course I never responded. Back then it was easier to ebay stalk someone. Also I live nowhere near maryland and i'm positive this guy is the same spammer

If it is someone who already knows your user name (ie someone who you purchased something from in the past) he can see all of your activity by doing an advanced search by bidder.

Yeah...Never purchased from him....I'm assuming it is just SPAM, but I am just wondering how he did it...
