LIST of FRAUDULENT SALES
by a single seller on eBAY
in June 2006
 
200 VICTIMS, $100,000

These pages list  eBay users who made purchases  form a single fraudulent seller at or after the point at which he flooded eBay with listings of equipment he probably never had.   No mechanisms or precautions taken by eBay were able to  prevent  this flood of listings or stop these users before they made their purchases.  

Ebay permitted 9 users to report the fraud, then froze the feedback.

About 200 victims were defrauded of over $100,000.

Nearly all  victims are listed here, in a  little group and a big one.  Since eBay blocks users after 10 messages, I need your help to contact everyone.  

THE FIRST, SMALL GROUP of  DEFRAUDED BUYERS
had time to leave non-positive feedback before eBay froze the Feedback Forum with all the feedback on the scammer.     I have also listed here buyers who participated in the same multiple-item listing as one of the defrauded buyers.  If the scammer listed and sold 4 home theater receivers in a single BUY-IT-NOW listing, and only one buyer had time to warn the community, I will assume the other 3 were cheated also.  

The potential  fraud in this first group totals $8,875.  Only 9 of the victims are revealed to the community in the Feedback Forum.  The fraud does not  look large to the public.    By freezing feedback (no more posts), victims cannot complain and the larger eBay community is shielded from discovering how large the fraud is.   Freezing the Feedback Forum is an example of how eBay manages the user community instead of fostering the user community.  

Unwittingly, perhaps, eBay helped to perpetrate the fraud by persuading two buyers to withdraw negative feedback instead of investigating the seller and shutting down the fraud.  eBay helped keep the scammer's record of 100% positive feedback intact despite early buyer complaints that we now know -- all too late -- were brilliantly correct.  For the actual eBay  feedback comments, see our negative feedback page.

NOTES


KEY, FEEDBACK:
+ positive;  - negative;  W withdrawn;  0 neutral;    B blocked; this victim could not leave negative feedback before eBay shut down all feedback, including the feedback privileges of those who were scammed.  
KEY, FRAUD:
If negative feedback was left, fraud is assumed to have occurred.  Where no feedback was posted before eBay froze the forum, we say fraud occurred if the victim told us so.  
DATE
is date of purchase.

---=0=---  

THE POPULATION ABOVE  is all people who left  negative, neutral or withdrawn negative feedback and everyone else who purchased the same items they did in the same sales of multiple BUY-IT-NOW items.  Since all people listed above  committed to purchase the item, the fraud perpetrated on this group approaches $8,875.76.  Defrauded purchasers whom eBay blocked from leaving feedback remain unknown to the eBay community.  The total scam is doubtless greater than what is listed above.  I invite you to ask eBay to give you a list of all people who purchased items from the seller they approved and registered as "auction_price_for_you"



THE SECOND BIG GROUP OF HIDDEN  DEFRAUDED BUYERS


Ebay shut down all feedback for this seller, including the feedback privileges of those who were scammed.  The majority of the victims could not identify themselves to the eBay community, and the eBay community cannot see how large the fraud is.  To get the attention this case deserves, it is necessary for the individual(s) reporting the fraud to  document in the police case file how many people and how much money was really involved.  

I have used proprietary methods to locate other victims of  "auction_price_for_you".  Every person listed below purchased and committed to pay for an item from "auction_price_for_you".   Because the purchases were made after the date on which the scammer sprung his trap,  we may assume all these buyers were defrauded.  

THE "CONTACTED YET? COLUMN in the TABLE

ACTION:
If you are one of these blocked victims and have come this far, please use eBay messaging to contact others.  Write to the user names tabled below.  Get a victim's real email address, and forward the information to me, jerry-va at speakeasy  dot net.  Write to user names that begin with the same letter as your own -- that will divide the load.  Don't just clobber the first person on top of the list !!   Be nice, we've all had a bad time.  

Thanks for your help.  Ebay blocks everyone after 10 messages.  Together we will build the community in ways that eBay does not.  

NOTES:  
1. A buyer is marked "Yes" in the fraud column only if he told us s/he was a victim.
2.  Everyone in the following list was blocked from leaving a negative feedback message.  There is no  "Feedback? Yes/No" column, they are all "B" for blocked.  
3.  This fraud eBay prevents you from seeing totals $93,323 below (and $102,161 overall), from about 200 victims below (and 220 overall).

"Auction has ended with Buy It Now", but the fun has just begun.   "Buy It Now" sales of multiple items under a single listing facilitate fraud.  If I suddenly buy a $4,000 luxury, my credit card company will call to make sure everything is really OK with me and my credit card.  Computer systems use artificial intelligence to detect departures from normal patterns. But eBay has implemented no control systems to catch a seller who suddenly has found the capital to purchase and offer for sale items worth a hundred times more than anything he has done before.  Did this user suddenly purchase trailer trucks and warehouses, or is he a fraud?  

And the flood of listings is larger still and therefore even easier to detect.  These are only the completed sales, twosies and threesies from listings that offered 5 and 10 items at a clip.    
Eleven SONY STR-DA3100ES 7.1 Channel Receivers in silver and black (listed individually) did not sell.  That's $5,500 in stock  right there.   Nothing suspicious you say, or is eBay  just too cheap to implement the traffic monitoring systems?
