Fake listings on ebay.

[Soulfulfrog]

Hi there. I'm growing concerned for us as forum members and for just regular customers on ebay. My cousin and I have noticed a ton of fake listings coming out of Canada. Please beware of any sales where the seller has 8 or so positive feedback only from purchases. Actually if you view the seller most of the time all of the feedback was earned in only a day or two from the same Chinese based sales. Also we have noticed the ebay names usually end with a number. Typically a 0 but lately it's been an 8. I'll post a fake listing here so that everyone knows what to look for. It's a shame as usually there are bids and these get sold all the time. I've personally tried to contact ebay of this as well as my cousin. He's even put a spreadsheet together for them. Here are a couple of examples.

This is only 2 I found in the last 5 min. There are tons like this. I know ebay has protection for buyers however it's a pain to deal with as we know. Anyway please beware and try to stay away from bidding on these style listings.

Just to add to Brian's post. Here is a list of the fake auctions on Ebay.ca at the moment.
All the auctions are similar, 1-3 day, starting price is $52.99 or $53.99 with very cheap shipping. (usually $3)
The items are listed as preowned but the descriptions say new.

All the sellers are new, with %100 positive buyer feedback from the same chinese sellers.
It looks as though they buy a dozen or less cheap items from China to get quick positive feedback.

What a shame there are tons of bids on these. Damn. Thanks Mike

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully the bidders will catch on to the type and amount of feedback that these sellers have....
