I believe one of them is when a buyer pays via PayPal and after the domain is transfered over to them they request a refund from PayPal.

The sad part is that posting information like this gives the scammers a heads up on what we know and may change their tactics.

I think it would benefit sellers more so they know what to be aware of.

I just want to be aware of all possible threats.

I recently listed some domain on ebay, and I'm getting offers, but a few want to do it away from ebay. I refuse.
I show the hit stats on ebay, and I found that if some one buys at the "Buy it now" price, but fails to pay, I lose all the hit stats and must start back at zero. :(
