European Scammer

[hurley9192]

This guy has his location in Europe and just put a ton of auctions up. He needs to go...

username is aillannma

auction number 3432844144

I checked and he has another auction with the location as the USA. Plus, he only accepts wire transfer...I think this is a huge scam.

Hurley,
Would you please provide the link to the report forum where some of the members can report this guy? Some of the newer members may be interested, but don't know how to report a seller/auction like this.

Hurley,
Looks like he got someone P.O at him.
They are bidding on his auctions like crazy, and the way I see it, he'll owe ebay about a million dollars in sellers fees if they all go off as bid, if not, he has a lot of cancelling to do, and unless he does a bidder block, they can go right back in there and rebid them up. I just got off ebay about 5 minutes ago, and he has like 438 auctions up and bids on a good half of them at astonishing prices.

[hurley9192]

yeah, I actually emailed the bidders and there are a couple just bidding up the amount so that no one gets scammed.

Wow, I just checked out all the auctions from this seller. I went through and tallied up the items with bids and their current prices. So here's what he would make if the auctions ended as of right now and each person paid him, not including shipping.

$834,319.33

He's coming close to a million dollars off these auctions, and the bidding hasn't really heated up yet on many of the items. At this rate, he will bring in over a million! Also, the numbers repeat themselves over and over on items with bids. This number is on dozens of his auctions: $6,766.00 And they have multiple bidders. Maybe a bidding ring? Who knows. This looks very fishy!

He already has been reported along with 4 other bogus sellers.

Hi guys, I'm new here! I came across this discussion and it just got me so irate that this guy (or gal?) was doing this... I reported him to eBay's fraud department (or whatever it's called) and I emailed one of the users who has bid on several of the "high-roller" items. Personally, I think what has happened is this guy hijacked several accounts, and is using eBay to launder money. In other words, he has these valid credit card numbers.. but in order to get money from them, he created all these auctions and then bid on them himself. It's weird that there are so many items at $6,776, but perhaps he wrote a script or program to automate this whole scam. Anyway, I hope eBay shuts this guy down right away...

hurlly if ya want to have some fun with these jerks email them about a reserve price or something. They will email you back with a cheap price.

And then say the price sounds good.

They will give you some city in spain to send a western union payment to. after you find out where the city is at, email them back and say you will be in that city on a business trip and will pick up the product, make sure it's for a laptop, or something you could bring back on a plane.

Then watch all the excuses they come up with . I have done this on a couple of these guys in the past and it's great fun playing them.

I had one guy email me back and wanted to know if I sent the money, I said I sent you the same thing you would have sent me NOTHING !!!

[spydrman]

Well, so much for that seller. It appears all his auctions are now gone and he got kicked off ebay.
