Re: IML: Fraud Ebay Listings

[richard burgess <lecrown60@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,  Never before have I picked up on these ebay scams before.  Same as we experience on the IML site, mispelled words, strange sentence structures.  We all saw the '60 300 ad.  Yesterday I spotted a low miliage '61 Cadillac sedan (stunning!) buy it now for $6500 or something.  Same story as the 300, father left it to me, not a car guy, "ran last mont", kinda stuff.  It has really made me wonder more and more about the ads we see.  It is so easy to paste pictures, descriptions, and text.  Another low miliage car I was looking at sold a month ago and is for sale again in another state.  I wonder just what was wrong with it that the owner is reselling it so soon.  I have a firend who actually flies out to see the cars he locates through ebay and it's amazing what people either don't know or don't disclose about the cars they are listing.

This guy is at it again.  He keeps listing my car for 6500 BIN.  Ebay has removed the ad three times in two days and I just found it listed again.

Ebay, through live chat with their Trust and Safety section, says they'll look into it.

I can't figure out why their investigators can't trace this guy thru the IP address, but I am really disappointed in their inability to nab this guy.

Anyway, the car is for sale but not for $6500.
