An Email Conversation with an eBay Scammer

Sometimes we receive copies of email messages from eBay members alerting us to a scam. Luckily, this member didn't get scammed and has given us permission to post the email messages. We are protecting the eBay member's identity.

This particular scammer is an idiot, he never answers the questions ~~ of course, he doesn't have the answers. This exchange of email conversations took place recently.

Hey man,

Like the looks of your Rhino and wanna put a bid on it. My eBay ID is INTENTIONALLY DELETED. Looks perfect for my small landscape business in ME. I might wanna do a BIN. Tell me how to make payment and let me know about the shipping.

Can you email me the service record and copy of the title? I'll need to register it.

Thx,

Kevin

Hello,

First let me say that the 2006 YAMAHA RHINO 660 PLUS EXTRAS is available for $3800. You will receive your RHINO by DAS (www.dasautoshippers.com) at your home address. It is insured in case of damage and it takes 3-4 days to be delivered at your door. I will send the unit with all the papers you need to register it (bill of sale, odometer disclosure statement) unit is in perfect condition,the machine is in a perfect cosmetic and engeen conditions, no leaks of any kind and it is ready for work now. Because I want to deal as soon as possible I am ready to cover the shipping costs and insurance. If you agree with this price we can start to complete the transaction, you won't pay any additional taxes, just the price for it ($3800). I am a private seller not a dealer and I had (for the moment) the privilege to buy this unit for a low cost from a bankrupt store and we bought it along with others in order to make a showroom, but life had another plan for us. My wife was promoted and we do not have time to open the showroom anymore, besides there are a lot of things which have priority now, so this unit has to go, you have now the opportunity to purchase the atv from me at great saving from the original price. The payment we will be made safely under ebay's purchase protection program and the most important thing is that I have a purchase protection account for $10,000 and I assume you know what this mean. In case we will close this deal, you are protected by ebay. How you are protected by ebay, well, in case you will not receive the atv as I described to you, ebay will refund you 100%. If you are interested in purchasing this atv provide me with your FULL NAME and EBAY USER ID so we can start the transaction.

Thanks

Thanks for the email message. Sorry for getting back to you so late, but my daughter was in a school play this evening and this is the first opportunity I have had to check email.

Is the Yamaha Rhino still available? I am pretty sure that I had it on my eBay watch list, but it isn't there anymore. I checked the listing number I referred to in my message to you - 150115165589, but it doesn't show up when I do a search.

My eBay ID is INTENTIONALLY DELETED and my name is INTENTIONALLY DELETED. You can get my shipping address from eBay/PayPal. My PayPal account is verified.

If the Yamaha Rhino is still available, can you do better than $3800? I know the opening bid was only $100. Also, I asked you to email me a copy of the service record and title. I want to get it registered fast, so I need to give a copy of the title to my insurance agent so that he can get the paperwork ready to go to the DMV. Can you get that information to me ASAP?

Where will you be shipping the Yamaha Rhino from? How do I pay you? Do you accept PayPal, credit cards or a bank transfer? Can you ship COD so I can pay DAS at delivery? Does DAS accept credit cards? I'd be happy to work this out through Escrow.com and pay the fee for the protection of both of us.

Thx.

Dear INTENTIONALLY DELETED

You are the only approved buyer for this Rhino. Your details have been forwarded on to the ebay purchase protection program. Now, in order for me to ship the unit to you and go forward with this deal, you must complete the payment process as you have been instructed by ebay. As soon as I receive the confirmation from them that you have made the payment, The item is located in 2008 Downing, Oklahoma City OK. I will have the item sent to you and you will receive it in about 3-4 days. A complete service/safety inspection has been performed to ensure everything is up to par and of course it passed with flying colors! If you are no more interested in purchasing this item from me, please let me know ASAP because I have another 2 clients waiting for this item but I need your agreement to sell it to someone else.

Let me know if you receive the invoice with payment instruction.

Thank you

The eBay invoice I received is for a deposit to be made to eBay's payment representative in Florida. I am very confused. How much is the deposit and who do I pay the balance to? Do I make a small deposit and then the balance on delivery to DAS? Why am I paying a deposit via Western Union to an eBay employee in Florida? eBay is in California and eBay owns PayPal, so why can't I make payment via PayPal? Why does an eBay representative have to be paid via Western Union? Who is paying the Western Union fee?

What is the final price? I can't find a listing 150115165589 on eBay. What is the correct listing number so that I can place a bid or BIN on this? I am really confused and I want to get this Rhino ASAP.

Please get back to me with the answers to these questions and answers to my questions in the email message I sent you earlier. Maybe it would be better if we talked on the phone.

I am not sure if my wife is right or not, but she said that I have to bid and win or use the eBay Buy It Now to get an eBay invoice. She also said that the invoice is supposed to come from "eBay.com" and not payment@checkoutebay.com. I don't know, but since you have a lot of feedback, maybe you can explain this to me.

Thx.

Hi --

Thanks for having eBay send me an invoice, but I am confused.

First things first. You didn't answer my questions in the email I sent you.

I asked you to send me a copy of the service record and title. I need the title so that my insurance agent can begin the paperwork to register the Rhino at the DMV and I want to look at the service record. In fact, my insurance agent asked for pictures of the Rhino to make sure that there isn't any body damage and he asked that you send a picture of the serial number too.

You didn't explain why I couldn't find the eBay listing that I saw. The listing number is 150115165589.

I asked you if the price is negotiable, but you automatically had eBay send me an invoice. Why does payment have to be made via Western Union? I have a PayPal account and I am verified, or I could pay via a bank to bank transfer, COD to DAS, or even through Escrow.com.

You might as well read my email message again. Once you answer the questions, email the photos and documents and we discuss the payment method, we can close the deal. I might have some more questions, so send me your telephone number so that I can call you.

By the way, don't I have to bid on the item or use the Buy It Now feature? I never got an invoice like this from eBay.

Thx.

Hello again,

I have used escrow services before and they blocked my money for about two weeks due to an error they called it "routine" and for the moment I cannot accept having my money stucked for weeks. At this price that I sell the car I am literally overwhelmed by the number of offers I have received. So please let me know if you are ready to finalize our transaction trough ebay.

I will be happy to complete the transaction once you send me the information I have asked for.

The things I need are:

1. Copy of the service record for the Rhino.

2. Copy of the title.

3. More photographs, showing that there isn't any body damage.

4. Photo of the serial number.

My insurance agent needs this information in order to begin the paperwork to transfer the registration. I am sure that you understand the reason that I need these documents.

Also, the eBay invoice said that I am supposed to send a deposit to the eBay representative in Florida and that it must be sent via Western Union. How much is the deposit? Then do I give the balance of the money to DAS when they deliver the Rhino to me?

Please explain to me why I have to send the deposit via Western Union? If I am sending money to an eBay representative, why not through PayPal? eBay owns PayPal so that is why I am confused. As I mentioned earlier, I am PayPal verified.

You also never explained why I can't find the listing number for the Rhino on eBay.

Please get back to me ASAP. I want to complete the transaction today, if possible. But, you need to get the items above to me immediately so that I can get them to my insurance agent to begin the process.

Thx.

To: rich7840s@aol.com

Since I haven't heard from you and I want the Yamaha Rhino, I went to Western Union to send a $100 deposit to the eBay representative in good faith. Western Union refused to process the wire transfer as soon as the agent saw that I wrote on the form that this was a deposit for an eBay listing. The agent said that the listing might be fraudulent, but she wasn't sure.

I wanted to make a deposit of $100 to your PayPal account, but PayPal doesn't recognize your email address.

I will send the money once you send me the items I have asked for in my other email messages. Please let me know if the $3800 should be sent to your PayPal account or if I should pay DAS upon delivery. It's too late today to get the documents to my insurance agent, so if you want the money sent to your PayPal account, it will have to be tomorrow, but only after I get the documents and photos I have asked you for. I don't know what the hold up is on your end, I thought you wanted to make this a quick sale.

Update you? I sent you two email messages yesterday, and you haven't answered either of them. You don't even answer the questions I have asked you in the other email messages.

I keep asking you for documents and photographs. Are you going to send them to me? My insurance agent needs them to register the Rhino at the DMV.

I told you the invoice eBay sent me only mentioned a deposit. I wrote to you before and asked how much is the deposit, since it wasn't specified. I suppose the balance is to be paid on delivery to DAS.

I went to Western Union yesterday to wire $100 to the eBay representative as a sign of good faith, but the agent stopped the transfer because I mentioned eBay. The agent said that many eBay listings are scams, but she didn't know for sure if this one is. So, my wife tried to send $100 to your PayPal account. For some reason, your email address rich7840s@aol.com isn't registered with PayPal.

If you don't send me the documents and photographs I asked for today, then I will continue to look for another Rhino. I don't think you want to sell it to me, I think you want to jerk me around. You are delaying this deal, not me. If you don't comply, then I will make a complaint to eBay.

Subject: 2006 Yamaha Rhino
To: rich7840s@aol.com

After I emailed you this morning, I was talking to one of my clients about purchasing the Yamaha Rhino from you and described what was happening. My client told me that you are trying to scam me.

You have been vague and haven't answered any of my questions; that should have been the first clue. The eBay listing disappeared. I never bid on the Rhino, but I received an invoice from eBay. The invoice was fake; it didn't come from eBay but from payments@checkoutebay.com. You wanted me to make payment via Western Union to some phony eBay representative.

Lucky for me Western Union wouldn't allow me to make the wire transfer to you yesterday, otherwise, I would have lost my money.

My client told me to do a Google search for your email address to see if you have been reported as a scammer. It shows up at http://nekkidtruth.blogspot.com. The email address from the fake invoice and the fake domain are also listed on the blog. You're nothing more than a thief. At least there are people on the web trying to protect us from thieves like you. All of the warning signs about a scam transaction are posted on that blog.

I hope you get caught and are prosecuted. You deserve to be in jail. Get a life.

We discovered www.checkoutebay.com when another member sent us a copy of a fake eBay invoice and found that the domain was registered on April 24, 2007 and that Yahoo was the host. The domain was under construction, and it was probably only going to be used to send out fake invoices. We wrote to Yahoo and the domain was disabled within a few hours.

Does the Opportunity of Getting a Good Deal/Great Bargain Outweigh an eBay Member Being Sensible?

DOES GREED OVERCOME AND PARALYZE
A BUYER'S INNATE COMMON SENSE?
When we find members bidding on fraudulent listings on eBay we are dumbfounded, because we see the red flags in the listings instantly, so we don't understand why bidders don't see what is so obvious to us. When coming across a fraudulent listing, alarms should be going off in a member's head, yet a member frequently has put on blinders or rose-colored glasses and ignores the obvious. We find bad grammar and spelling errors, ridiculously low opening bids, items listed in the wrong categories, idiotic excuses for off eBay contact, and offers within the description for Buy It Now, without the standard eBay "Buy It Now" button displayed. Unfortunately, we continuously find people bidding or even worse, making contact and entering into off eBay transactions.

To us, many bidders appear to be naive or gullible. And, if they don't fall into those categories, then they must be lacking common sense and are overcome by greed. As one scammer frequently writes in his listings these bidders are "ready to make the deal of the year" and the scammers are thrilled to take the money and run. Scammers know they won't get caught because they are using false contact information and are receiving instant money transfers sent by victims. Instant money transfer services do not require identification at pick up; all that is required for a scammer to obtain wired funds is the tracking number.

It's truly a shame, but only after someone is victimized and loses money is when he begins his due diligence and sees the red flags he should have noticed long before he gave away his money. Hindsight, is indeed 20/20, and it is unfortunate, but, by the time an eBay member has become a victim and has realized he was scammed, it is far too late to get the money back.

Scammer lies defy logic, yet gullible eBay members are "believers" and get caught in the web of deception. When scammers write excuses in their listings such as they can't access their eBay email or they can't access their home or work email and to use alternative methods for contact, doesn't it make you wonder? Doesn't your radar go up? It doesn't make any difference where a person is accessing eBay or his email from - it can be from home, work, the public library, a prison, an Internet cafe, a hotel lobby, a bus station, an airport, or a wireless connection. Most people can access their home email address from work and vice versa; and, it doesn't make any difference because if you can access the Internet, eBay can be accessed from anywhere.

If a member can log onto eBay, list items and access his account, he can always access the My eBay My Messages folder and read any messages sent via eBay's "Ask Seller a Question" (ASQ) function. Some members have the forwarding preference turned off; therefore, a duplicate copy will not be forwarded to a member's registered email address, however, the original message is always in the My Messages folder. Scammers sometimes forget to disable the forwarding feature, and tell you not to use ASQ so that their thievery won't be detected by the member whose account they are using for deception. If a message was forwarded to the real member's registered email address, that member would be alerted that his account was hijacked.

Scammers lie and have many excuses. They have the gall to say that the My Messages folder is full because it has too many messages in it, eBay hasn't activated it yet, it is locked, it doesn't work and eBay has been notified, it is disabled, it has a glitch, it is frozen, it is slow, or else will state some other lame excuse. Do not believe scammers that say that the My eBay My Messages inbox is infected with viruses. The lies are all ruses; it's all nonsense to get potential buyers to make off eBay contact. The My Messages folder holds an unlimited number of messages, there are no capacity or quota issues, and the newest messages always appear first. In fact, in most cases, if no action is required, the messages automatically purge from the folder in 90 days. Messages that are required to be read that appear with a yellow banner and always sent by eBay (such as TKO notices) automatically purge after 180 days.

Always ask yourself if the person you are communicating with is telling you the truth. Don't let scammers bait you with their lies. If you do have communication with a scammer, don't believe it when he says that his PayPal account is frozen and that eBay has authorized that payments may be made through unsafe instant money transfer services such as Western Union and Moneygram. Scammers will even tell you that they have to pay a commission to instant money transfer services and that you should lie and never mention an eBay transaction so they can avoid paying the commission. Instant money transfer services NEVER charge the recipient a commission; they charge the sender a wiring fee. In all honesty, scammers fear that if you mention eBay that the transfer will be stopped. Scammers tell you this lie so you won't be warned by the instant money transfer service to NEVER SEND MONEY TO PEOPLE YOU DO NOT KNOW.

eBay does not verify the trustworthiness of the seller, the availability of the merchandise, specify the payment mechanism, or approve any transactions. eBay does not have its own escrow service and it never holds money for a transaction. If an escrow or shipping company is offered, research it thoroughly and make sure that it is a legitimate company. eBay does not make its members put up bonds, deposits, or insurance. There is no such thing as an "eBay Managed Purchase Protection Account" that the seller must deposit money into; nor is there an eBay inspection period for the buyer. There are no eBay representatives to send payments to. There is no such thing as an "eBay Vehicle Purchase Program" and items being sold on Craigslist are not eligible for any type of eBay protection. eBay does not have warehouses and storage facilities and it never holds merchandise. Merchandise is never pre-crated and held at the shipping company pending a sale and seller directions. Square Trade does not manage eBay accounts or eBay transactions; and it is a separate entity from eBay and only mediates transactions between buyers and sellers for a fee.

Make sure that you always use the blue Place Bid button or the red Buy It Now button in every listing. Verify in your My eBay that you actually bid on or bought an item. DO NOT EVER enter into off eBay transactions. If you do enter into an off eBay transaction, you have absolutely NO recourse.

Scammers attempt to intimidate members with threats in their bogus listings. Frequently, scammers will write that a member must make contact via email before bidding, and if bids are made without approval that beside the bid being canceled, the bidder will be reported to eBay and, negative feedback will be left. Do not be intimidated by these threats. Scammers are just attempting to get you to enter into off eBay transactions. If a bid is canceled, feedback cannot be left by either party. And, hopefully sooner than later, eBay will cancel the bogus listings and secure the account. Scammers do not report members to eBay! Think about it -- scammers want to fly under the eBay radar and don't want to be discovered.

Scammers send fake eBay messages, however, fake invoices and Second Chance offers will NEVER appear in the My eBay My Messages in box. Don't fall prey to fake eBay communications. Check the grammar in the messages. eBay does not make spelling errors. If you are reading the email messages through your email provider, open up the headers and see where the messages originated from. Double-check that the message is in your My eBay My Messages in box. If the message you received through your email provider is not also appearing in your My eBay My Messages in box, then the message you received is a scam.

We suggest that you take additional precautions; change your eBay preferences to only accept email from eBay in text-only format and turn off the Second Chance Offer feature. By taking these precautions, you will immediately be alerted that you have received scam email messages if you receive eBay email with HTML in it or any Second Chance Offers. Remember, if you choose to accept Second Chance Offers they will appear in My eBay with a listing number; they are genuine listings solely for you and will appear as a fixed price Buy It Now listing at the highest bid price you made on a previous listing. If you do decide to change your preferences, also change the email preference in your PayPal account to text-only format. Take these simple precautions, change your preferences, and be safe instead of sorry.

Sellers do not have to ask you for your eBay ID and contact information to send you an invoice. Winner notifications for every transaction are generated by eBay, and the contact information is in eBay's database. You can always check My eBay to determine whether you have won or lost an item, but make sure that you used the Place Bid or Buy It Now button. Don't believe scammer stories such as the seller can't receive payments through PayPal because he is going through a divorce or because of unauthorized activity. Don't believe it when a scammer says he can't talk to you on the phone because he is on vacation, he is on a business trip, or he recently had surgery on his throat or his ears. If a seller says that he is honest, ask yourself why he said that.

Don't rush, take the time to thoroughly read the listings and use common sense. Be leery of sellers that use stock photographs in their listings. Check the history of your trading partner. Check the items the seller currently has for sale, the feedback, and the prior sales/buying history. Put the item you are interested in on your watch list; there are very few one-of-a-kind items on eBay. If the listing says to make contact via email, use eBay's "Ask the Seller a Question" feature instead; the link is in the upper right hand corner of the listing beneath the seller's ID. If you want to make sure that the listing is legitimate, ask the seller to send you a digital photograph of the item with your eBay ID handwritten in the photo. If the item you are interested in has a serial number, ask for a digital photograph of it, and take the next step and verify the serial number with the manufacturer. If you get an excuse, find another seller that will comply with your request.

If you must reply to an email address in a listing, do an advanced search for it and see if it appears in more than one account. eBay only allows members to register one email address per account. Verify the email address and see if it is registered to an eBay account. Do a Google search for the email address, you may very well find it listed on this blog or elsewhere.

If you were looking at a listing and it disappears, the seller did not pull it because he had a lot of people interested in it. eBay pulled the listing because it was a scam.

If you are not familiar with scammer language read the blog entry below dated April 11, 2007, or do a Google search for a phrase. The scammer language is indexed by Google and found with a simple search.

Remember, scammers have an infinite number of phantom items in their non-existent inventories which they constantly bait eBay members with. The scams are not limited solely to eBay; the scams are all over the Internet.

Scammers are terrible liars and they have an unlimited number of excuses. They use many different email addresses, are running multiple schemes, and are operating under multiple hijacked accounts and accounts they created on their own to defraud at any one time. Not one of the scammers has a conscience; each would sell his own mother for a price. They are thieves that haven't been caught by law enforcement. Scammers defraud people all over the world and get away stealing millions of dollars every year; they scam many people everyday. Do not be taken in by scammers; do not become a victim of an Internet crime. Be wary, ask questions, buy defensively.

Look for the clues and don't forgive or overlook any of the red flags. What is obvious to us should be obvious to you. If you use common sense, keep your anti-virus and spyware protection programs up to date, install critical browser patches, pay for all transactions only with a credit card, never pay for transactions via instant money transfer services, never click on unknown links in email messages, and follow the advice written on this blog, you will limit your risk. Do not become a victim of an eBay scammer or a victim of fraud anywhere on the Internet. Be proactive. Be careful. Be diligent. Be observant. Be informed. Be smart.

eBay Town Hall Meeting on April 30, 2007 - Trust & Safety Issues to be Discussed

Based on the following announcement, it doesn't appear that eBay wants to create a thread on its Town Hall Forum message board for members to post questions. eBay would prefer to privately receive email so the panelists can quietly select the questions they want to answer.

***Phone In Your Questions! Town Hall with Bill Cobb on Monday, April 30th***

April 19, 2007 | 12:10PM PST/PT

Hi everyone...this is Bill Cobb, President of Marketplaces North America. I'd like to invite you to my next Town Hall event on Monday, April 30 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Pacific time. This month's topic is Trust & Safety.

My friend and colleague Rob Chesnut, eBay's Senior Vice President of Trust & Safety, along with several members of his team, will be joining me during this Town Hall. I'm also pleased that eBay's Chief Information Security Officer, Dave Cullinane, will be able to join our panel. Dave brings 35 years of experience in the information security business to our team, and we're delighted to have him.

Ask us your question on the air
We'll be broadcasting LIVE via Internet radio with the help of our friends at wsRadio. If you have a question for me, Rob, or one of the other leaders on our panel, you'll be able to call us at our toll-free number – 877-474-3302 – to talk to us about your Trust & Safety question in person.

As always, you'll be able to listen in via Windows Media Player or Real Player.

Email us your question before the Town Hall
If you’d prefer, you can also email your Trust & Safety-related question to us before the event to TownHall@ebay.com – we’ll be answering some of our email during the show, as well.

So, I hope you'll join us. Visit www.ebay.com/townhall for all the details.

Sincerely,

Bill Cobb
President, Marketplaces North America

From past experience, the panelists, and specifically, Bill Cobb and Rob "Pinocchio" Chesnut, most likely will not be forthcoming and answer the tough questions about fraud on eBay's platforms. Cobb and Chesnut will probably continue to tout the success of eBay's SMI initiative and state that fake second chance offers and shill bidding are practically non-existent. eBay members know differently ~~ SMI has bombed and it only protects the identities of shill bidders.

We would like to know what questions you are posing to the panelists. Send a copy to always.the.nekkid.truth@gmail.com and we will post your questions on the blog (out of courtesy to you and for your own protection, we will omit your email address). Even if eBay doesn't believe in transparency, we do. After the Town Hall Meeting transcript is released, we will then know exactly which questions the panelists chose to answer.

eBay/Live World 'Pinks' Member for Signature Violation Leading to Me Page Links

I received a "pink" notice from eBay's Moderation Team (Live World) for a signature violation, that directs readers to my Me Page which has two links on it. One link goes directly to this blog and the other to a message board. Funny thing, but the signature I post with on eBay message boards has been the same for months and says:

Ask me for a list of hackers email addresses found in eBay listings.
Please click on my ME Page for further information.
I have never been cited for this specific violation before, but Live World decided to cite me today. The thread that I posted to is entitled Town Hall Meeting on April 30th - Topic is Trust & Safety, but what is most amusing is that I initiated that thread on April 18th with the same signature, but the thread still exists, as do my other posts, again with the same signature. I have to wonder why eBay doesn't feel that my first post on the subject thread, or any other of my posts that still appear aren't board violations.

Post #62 was deleted by Live World. I wrote:

There was no logical reason to block access or purge the thread for the last Town Hall Meeting. The only reason that I can come up with is for the same reason that a recent thread was locked and we were referred to a policy and another community message board.

However, I did copy many of the questions from that thread if they related to T&S and they can be found on my blog. To find the blog, please follow the link on my Me Page.

It is grossly apparent that eBay does not want certain topics discussed on its boards. It appears that we will have to abide by its decision otherwise those that violate the eBay rules will be reprimanded and sanctioned. However, here are other forums where these discussions can take place off of eBay.

The truth is that eBay used this lame excuse to delete my post because it was in response to the last thread that was created for eBay's March Town Hall Meeting. It was recently discovered that the thread from March cannot be accessed ~~ eBay must be hiding something. I happened to copy many of the questions that appeared on that thread, which appear in a blog entry below dated April 3, 2007. Obviously, eBay doesn't want anyone reading those questions, thus the pink slap that I received.

Keep it up eBay! I am critical and vocal, I document everything, and eBay members do read this blog.

eBay Censoring Members on Community Message Boards as Fraud Continues to Spiral Out of Control

The blogger and owner of both the FireMeg blog and the FireMeg website was suspended by eBay at the end of March for 30 days for speaking out about fraud on eBay's community message boards. This blog has recently received communications from eBay members that have been sanctioned and indefinitely suspended from eBay for speaking out about fraud on its community message boards. Gag orders, known as "pink slips," notifying members that their posts have been removed by Live World, community board sanction notices, and eBay registration suspension notices are constantly being emailed to its members.

eBay has become more heavy-handed in censoring its members, because it continues to DO NOTHING about fraud and it doesn't want its members discussing it on eBay. eBay now has zero tolerance when it comes to its members discussing fraud on its community message boards. The only way to keep the discussions about fraud off of the boards is to censor its members. In eBay's eyes, if there aren't any active discussions regarding fraud on eBay, then there isn't any fraud running rampant on its platforms. In essence, if you can't see it, it doesn't exist.

When people register to become eBay members and post on eBay community message boards, they give up their rights to free speech. eBay has Board Policies and a Policy Explanation Board explaining the rules. Bottom line, you either play by eBay's rules or risk being silenced and having all of your privileges suspended.

Most recently, eBay has been locking down threads on the Trust & Safety (SafeHarbor) message board. On Wednesday, April 18, the thread entitled Massive, worldwide, multiple user hijacks Thread 2 4/4/07 was locked down to prevent further discussion about fraud (the first thread was locked down because of the vast amount of posts on it). The last post on the second thread is from the eBay employee that locked it down.

This discussion is now closed. Please review the Board Usage Policy and Policy Explanation board before posting further.

Thanks,

Avery

It appears that eBay doesn't want constructive criticism from its members, yet it wants its members to police its platforms and quietly report fraud, but only to eBay. eBay does not like its members being publicly critical, therefore, posts on eBay's community boards are continuously being removed and threads are being locked down. As a member, if you are outspoken, you will be sanctioned for it. eBay thinks it has the upper hand by censoring its members on the community boards, but there are plenty of blogs and message boards off of eBay where members have been voicing their criticisms and they are not being censored.

It's too bad that eBay moves at warp speed when it comes to censoring critical comments from its members, but moves at a snail's pace when it comes to nullifying fraudulent listings and securing accounts. eBay needs to get its priorities in order.

The truth is that fraud is spiralling out of control on eBay, and Rob Chesnut, eBay's Senior Vice President of Global Trust & Safety, doesn't have a handle on it. We believe that Chesnut is most likely the person behind the scenes requesting that the critical eBay members be censored. We are now certain that Chestnut's Trust & Safety group is actually the local division of the Keystone Cops.

In a recent blog post on FireMeg dated April 16, the blogger referred to Chesnut as a pathological liar and bumbling idiot. In a nutshell, eBay's head crime fighter is inept and grossly underqualified for the position that he holds, and Chesnut would be better suited securing employment as a character at a Disney theme park because he lives in fantasy land. We propose he apply for the position of "Pinocchio" because he is such a proficient liar. Apparently eBay's hiring criteria is based on the Peter Principle, meaning "In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence." Chesnut has arrived!

Fraud is on the increase at eBay. However, Chesnut infers that it is significantly reduced, ignores that it exists, falsely misleads members into believing new fraud prevention initiatives have been put into place, or implements flawed fraud prevention initiatives to mask it and protect the thieves. There is no longer any transparency at eBay. eBay, with its quick trigger finger, deletes the evidence and because of the cover up should be renamed eBayGate.

Prior to Chesnut's employment at eBay, he was an assistant US attorney for the Southern District of Virginia. Chesnut used to seek justice from corruption; under the veil of eBay's 'venue' status he now helps hides it. Per Martindale-Hubbell, Chesnut is admitted to practice law in Virginia, but not admitted in California. He does not need to be credentialed in California to be employed as corporate counsel because he is not litigating cases. One has to wonder, however, why Chesnut has not sat for the California bar examination.

Opinions by eBay members about Chesnut's qualifications do not vary. When recently asked about Chesnut's qualifications, an eBay member stated:

I've always felt that Rob Chesnut is highly UNqualified for his job. Through discussions over the years he has admitted that he's "not very good with computers", and doesn't know how to do html. I've had conversations with him about viruses, computer coding, etc. He doesn't have a clue. So how can someone be head of trust & safety for an online company - one that uses computer technology to provide their services - and not know a damn thing about computers?

And as for illegal activity and how to detect same, he doesn't have the first clue.

Another member feels as though Chestnut's impotence elevates him to 'blivot' status.

An eBay watchdog reported earlier this week that since Rob Chesnut announced the new proactive fraud initiative on April 9, that accounts detected with fraudulent listings have increased by 20% when compared to the same time period a month ago. Other members reported on Tuesday that the Chinese hijackers' fraudulent Apple I-Pod and Microsoft X-Box listings are now appearing by the thousands and that eBay cannot take the listings down fast enough. This blog, which usually captures approximately 200 of the thieves' email addresses and fake domains on eBay every week, captured 182 email addresses on Tuesday, and in the past 4.5 days has added 411 new email addresses and fake domains found in eBay listings to the blog.

Investors, analysts, eBay management and even the thieves that fraudulently list on eBay may be happy with the recently announced first quarter earnings results, but the eBay watchdogs and members that have been harmed because of eBay's blatant inattentiveness to fraud are angry and will continue to complain about it.

eBay may continue to censor any member that speaks out about fraud on its community message boards, however, you can make eBay hear you very clearly if you refuse to transact any business on its platforms.

Boycott eBay; it is unsafe. Spend your money elsewhere.

Current Fraudulent Listings on eBay

In collaboration with the website Company Exposed, the following are links to many of the fraudulent listings currently on eBay. Each fraudulent listing was created by a thief either on an account the thief created or else hijacked from an eBay member in good standing. Please read the instructions carefully if you are going to report the specific accounts to eBay.

The links provided are by search string and the searches are based on specific language the thieves use in their listings.

Scammer Language - A to E

Scammer Language - F to J

Scammer Language - K to O

Scammer Language - P to T

Scammer Language - U to Numeric
Once you click on a link to the Company Exposed scammer sniffer, please right click on the listings to view them in a new window. This will reduce the number of page loads on Company Exposed's website.

It's truly sad that eBay can't catch these listings on its own. It has to rely on members to do its work to keep eBay safe. But, it just goes to show you that even though Rob Chesnut, Senior Vice President of eBay's Global Trust & Safety says that eBay has taken proactive measures towards curtailing fraud, that his statements are blatantly untrue. The simple fact is that if Company Exposed can set up these searches to find bogus listings, eBay can also. In fact, eBay with its state-of-the-art software could find the bogus listings even before they are uploaded and indexed on eBay's platforms, but instead it does nothing but rely on its members to police its platforms. eBay chooses to be deaf, dumb and blind when it comes to fraud.

Paraphrasing Jack Nicholson in the movie A Few Good Men, eBay can't handle the truth! And, we don't believe eBay's and specifically Rob Chesnut's spin in regard to eBay's fraud protection initiatives. Therefore, we suggest that since eBay lies about taking proactive steps to curtail fraud that you boycott eBay!

eBay's New Fraud Prevention Initiative ... it is Clearly Not Working

On Monday, April 9, 2007, Rob Chesnut, Senior Vice President of eBay's Global Trust & Safety announced a new fraud prevention initiative to curtail the massive number of fraudulent listings created by thieves on eBay. The specifics of this announcement can be found on this blog in an entry dated April 10, 2007.

It has been almost a week since Rob Chesnut made this announcement, however, we see absolutely no reduction in the number of fraudulent listings found each day when we are reviewing listings on eBay. Mr. Chesnut announced that the specific criteria would be kept secret so that the fraudsters would not be alerted to it. As far as we can tell, the specific criteria that eBay has established to curtail the number of fraudulent listings appearing on eBay's platforms is also being kept secret from eBay. There has not been one iota of improvement since the announcement was made.

By now, we should have seen fraud prevention filters in place so that listings with common scammer language (see blog entry below dated April 11, 2006) would be caught automatically. The eBay members that voluntarily police eBay every moment of the day would not have to continuously report the hijacked accounts that have listings with these common phrases. Instead eBay members are reporting that there is more fraud.

If fraud prevention filters were in place, eBay would be catching the fraudulent listings created through Turbo Lister and other third-party programs, yet the listings are immediately being indexed and appearing instantaneously, which is contrary to Mr. Chesnut's announcement that there would be a substantial delay for listings appearing on eBay.

If fraud prevention filters were in place, eBay would be catching the fraudulent listings that had known scammer email addresses in them. Thousands of these email addresses are documented on this blog. The same would hold true for the well-known items that the scammers list. eBay would be catching the bulk of the fraudulent listings automatically.

What could eBay's and specifically Rob Chesnut's excuse possibly be? The truth is that the fraud prevention initiative that Rob Chesnut announced has either not been implemented or it is so flawed that it is not working effectively. In actuality, we believe that Rob Chesnut's announcement is a monumental lie. A new fraud prevention initiative does not exist, and the announcement was made to make the eBay community believe that eBay is safer and proactive towards fraud.

Mr. Chesnut, are you so brainwashed by the eBay machinery, that you believe the lies that you make publicly? Do you sleep at night with a clear conscience? Do you go to confession and tell your priest that you lie?

Rob Chesnut has ZERO credibility amongst those that participate on eBay's Trust & Safety community board. On April 30th, eBay is hosting a Town Hall Meeting and the topic is trust and safety. Rob Chesnut is one of the panelists. What could he possibly say to regain the community's trust?

eBay is allowing thieves to upload fraudulent listings on its servers. eBay is only taking these listings down and securing the affected accounts when members bring the accounts to eBay's attention. eBay is doing nothing on its own to make its platforms safer. By doing nothing, eBay continues to aid and abet criminals, and continuously allows criminals to defraud its members.

eBay should be ashamed of itself.

We urge all members to take a stance. If you are a seller, find other avenues to sell your items on. If you are a buyer, do not shop on eBay. Boycott eBay; it is not safe.

Scammer Language Found in eBay Listings

Whether you are finding thieves' email addresses or fake domains in listings, and whether or not the listings are in the correct categories or not, the following are phrases found in bogus listings on eBay. If you come across a listing with any of this phrasing in it, for heavens sake, do not bid and do not make contact with the thief.

Note: Due to the fact that the auction bidding was restricted, the eBay listing will appear in your "Won" folder only after we will be able to confirm that your funds have been secured in our account. This is also available for all messages regarding this transaction, including the invoice #VPP-2063212.

Just Announced ... A New eBay Safety Initiative to Combat Online Fraud or is it More eBay Propaganda?

eBay has announced a new initiative informing its members that it is implementing a new process to combat fraud. We believe this announcement is nothing more than propaganda and was made to lull eBay members into believing that eBay is taking a proactive stance towards fraud. However, eBay is doing nothing more than providing its members with another false sense of security by implementing an additional layer of ineffective security.

The following announcement was made on April 9, 2007 by Rob Chesnut, Senior Vice President of eBay's Global Trust & Safety.

***A Message From Rob Chesnut – Combating Online Fraud***

April 09, 2007 | 09:21AM PST/PT

Hello...I'm Rob Chesnut, eBay's Senior Vice President in charge of Global Trust & Safety. As you may know, over the last several months we've been working on a number of initiatives that comprise a new, more proactive approach to securing the safety of the marketplace. For instance, last fall we implemented listing restrictions to help reduce counterfeits on the site. In January, we changed our buyer protection plan to encourage the use of safe, insured payments through PayPal. We've been protecting bidders on high-end items through the Safeguarding Members ID project, and we're testing Detailed Seller Ratings to help buyers choose sellers who offer the best customer experience through feedback 2.0, the next generation of our feedback system.

Early results from these and other behind-the-scenes efforts show we're moving in the right direction. We're seeing a significant reduction in fake Second Chance offers, for instance, and fewer reports of potential counterfeit listings in the categories most favored by scammers. Of course, as we make changes, the scammers also adapt their methods. While I'm pleased with our direction and progress, I also want to help the Community understand this is an ongoing effort that requires an aggressive long-term approach.

Some of these actions have caused some legitimate concerns in the Community, and we've worked hard to address them with education and communication. With Safeguarding Member IDs specifically, we're working to improve the user interface – we know this is the right policy, but we also know we can improve the user experience, and we're working on it.

We've launched feedback 2.0 on eight eBay international sites, and the initial reaction so far has been encouraging. We're closely watching how this improved feedback system works, and listening to feedback from eBay members in these markets.

Proactive Fraud Reduction
Today I want to let buyers and sellers know about another security measure we're taking. For safety reasons, items reportedly most favored by fraudsters may not be viewable for several hours before the listings are indexed into Search results. These new listings are still viewable on the site through My eBay or if you search for the specific item number; however, they are not immediately visible through a keyword search or Browse.

To maximize exposure for these listings and ensure that buyers who browse by category see these items, we've made an important change. Any listings impacted by this review process will appear in the "Newly Listed" sort based on when they are made visible in Search (as opposed to when they are listed.) This ensures they will appear at the top of default Browse results - as well as within the "Newly Listed" sort option for Search - where they belong.

What kinds of listings will be impacted?
Unfortunately, it's not possible for us to give you criteria, because that information could be used by scammers to work around our Trust and Safety efforts. Overall, however, we expect this security measure to impact only a fraction of listings.

Let me say that I understand that this has some impact for our sellers, but with the change to how we sort listings, and the fact that most bidding occurs in the final 12 hours of a listing, we believe it's the right step to take. I know we share the same goal – to keep eBay a welcoming, safe marketplace for both our buyers and our sellers.

To learn more about these changes, please read our Frequently Asked Questions.

Join me at the next Town Hall
Trust & Safety will be the focus of Bill Cobb's next monthly Town Hall on April 30 at 2 p.m. Pacific time. I hope you’ll join me, Matt Halprin, and a number of other eBay leaders as we talk to Bill about Trust & Safety and answer member questions.

Again, I appreciate your support – working together, our efforts are helping keep the marketplace a safe place to buy and sell.

Sincerely,

Rob Chesnut
Senior Vice President, Global Trust & Safety

So eBay has a new initiative for proactive fraud reduction; it appears that eBay is going to review specific items that are frequently listed on its platforms by thieves that are either hijacking innocent member accounts or are creating new accounts for the intent to defraud. Isn't this what eBay's much touted Fraud Automated Detection Engine (FADE) program is supposed to do?

Announced in 2002, by eBay CEO Meg Whitman, FADE is an automated program that collects information reported by defrauded members, and compiles the specific items in a database; FADE then predicts which new listings are fraudulent and prevents them from uploading on eBay's platforms. Although eBay has always been vague about FADE, we know that it has never pre-screened listings that were uploaded through eBay's Turbo Lister or other third-party programs, as those listings are immediately indexed and visible on eBay's platforms.

Please note that in Rob Chesnut's announcement yesterday, he stated:

For safety reasons, items reportedly most favored by fraudsters may not be viewable for several hours before the listings are indexed into Search results. These new listings are still viewable on the site through My eBay or if you search for the specific item number; however, they are not immediately visible through a keyword search or Browse.

Chesnut never announced that any listings detected as fraudulent through this pre-screening process would be prevented from appearing on eBay, nor did he even mention if the new process would pre-screen listings created through Turbo Lister or other third-party programs.

The Nekkid Truth believes that this announcement was made as an excuse to satisfy member complaints for eBay's indexing delays, as listings created through eBay's Sell Your Item (SYI) form normally do not appear on eBay platforms for 7 or more hours, shorting members exposure for their listings. Member complaints are prevalent on eBay community boards that sellers are paying for more hours of listing visibility than they are receiving.

Although we do not know what items eBay is pre-screening, we are still finding the same fraudulent listings for vehicles, boats, heavy machinery, cameras, electronics, baby carriages, prosthetics, musical instruments, and event tickets that we found before. Three hours after Chesnut's announcement was made, and now over 24 hours later, fraudulent listings created through Turbo Lister and other third-party programs still appear on eBay platforms immediately after being uploaded and indexed. Since we know that FADE never pre-screened these listings, we strongly doubt that the newly announced process is pre-screening them either.

The new pre-screening process is just as inefficient and flawed as FADE is. Hasn't eBay woken up to the fact that its Turbo Lister program is the favorite listing tool for thieves and that any new process should be pre-screening listings created with this program and other third-party listing programs?

eBay, it is time to return to the drawing board. How about implementing a fail safe method for credentialing new members, imposing selling restrictions on newly created and recently activated dormant accounts, and automatically reviewing aberrant buyer activity? It is time for eBay to invest the money and build a new platform that is truly secure instead of trying to patch the gaping holes with processes that are blatantly ineffective for detecting and eliminating fraud.

We will begin to believe that eBay has credibility and accept its announcements seriously once it has proven that it has a zero tolerance level towards fraud on its platforms and that it is diligently protecting its members. eBay, stop making excuses and hiding behind your venue status.
