Looks like there are some fake sales on E-bay again. (There's a surprise) If you search for Tom Tom Go 700, there are listings from China, Hong Kong and Ireland, all with 100% positive feedback and 10 transactions in the history. If you look at the feedback reports, they were all trades with members who had never traded before, and clicking on the item numbers throws up garbage. None of the ones I looked at took any secure form of payment, but there are people out there bidding. (Prices are around €160 which is clearly a great bargain for a new boxed 700).

You might even find that the link to the 'garbage' page is trying to load something on your PC to steal details, key logger etc.

It could (hopefully) that you have something protecting your PC, so only garbage is displayed, but do give your PC a thorough check.
