Ebay Scams

Discussion in 'Ducati General Discussion' started by Flatfish, Jan 26, 2015.

  1. A seller on ebay has got himself 63 feedbacks at 100% for selling crap, now hes listed pages and pages of motor vehicles at around half their value.
    He says text me your number for fast response, so nothing goes though ebay.
    Obviously a scam, but why dont ebay have easier way of reporting members, you can repost each individual item, but that would take days,
    They also suggest using police fraud team. Its like 'NO EBAY' wake up and take some responsibilities and not just commission.
    Heres 1
    ABSOLUTELY STUNNING DUCATI SPORT CLASSIC 1000. RETRO CAFE RACER | eBay
     
  2. Well something's worked as they're all gone now :upyeah:
     
  3. yeyyyy, i reported 10, then got bored :upyeah:
     
  4. No,they are all still on there!
     
  5. Try again! I cant find em now.
    Wonder if they have removed all his other genuine crap off there? push chair, shirt etc. lol
    funniest thing, he had so so many bikes, cars, and motorhomes, some duplicates, (bar colour).
    He stated things like 'owned from new' my father bought this new' yada yada, he must have bought one every week for 3 or 5 years, ha ha. A MILLIONAIRE you think, maybe, but listing £3 shirts?. Im afraid, lol......
     
  6. this add is constantly popping up along with about thirty others inc 911,s etc from the same ballbag.I keep reporting him and he keeps reappearing .
     
  7. Thats the one! and thats ebay for you. They are a dictatorship.
    In fact, last time I fell out with them, I changed my user name to 'ebay-is-a-dictatorship' in protest.
    that was 2 years ago!
     
  8. I reported one today-I suppose they are just waiting for 'A fool and his money.....' to come along.Bit like those poor devils in Tonbridge who were panicked into transferring their bank accounts into a fraudsters.
     
  9. nails and scrotum come to mind.
     
  10. i love it, think of how much time hes wasted, I recon there was 6 pages of stuff. Arzole.
     
  11. Not there now but was there at 8pm.
     
  12. If this is the same person I went along with one of his scams posing as a potential buyer of a 848. He eventually dropped me after I started asking more and more difficult but perfectly reasonable questions that a genuine buyer would ask. He said he lived in Scotland although his IP traced to London. His scam seemed to revolve round the buy now and pay later option that Paypal give, possibly not to everyone but i certainly have it on my business account. I couldn't see how it could work and I got the impression he had not thought the whole scam through properly.

    I put up all the emails I received from him as the days went by and they are on another posting of mine.
