Came across this link about some guy who sold a broken computer to another guy on E-bay, but the buyer pulled the hard drive and found all of this incriminating stuff

That's funny! That's also why I told my brother-in-law to remove the hard drive from his old pc and smash it with a hammer. This was after he had put the pc out for the garbagemen, but before the Sunday night trashpickers made their rounds.

That's one of the best things you can have happen. People don't realize the accessibility of your personal data on a computer. Sux for that guy!

the guy bought a computer from a seller with 0 previous feed back?
I'd like at least a few feed backs (at 100%) for something pricey like a laptop

He didn't. The guy who got scammed used all the information he found on the hard drive to write vicariously as the scammer.
