hum.... they all seem to be ending around the same time. Wouldn't be surprised if he's just going to take everyone's money at once, cancel his account then vanish forever. Happened to me before with a 17" powerbook. Luckily I knew someone in the FBI and had his azz thrown in jail for quite some time. Still didn't get my money back though =(. Moral of the story... don't drink and drive

p-p-p-powerbook

was that you?

Haha... surely you have a news clipping or a link to an article from when he was convicted or sentenced?

 

[DrPizza]

perhaps someone with a fake account should bid 30k on each item to prevent the thief from gaining any money?

 

[Chiboy]

It's a hacked account....

 

[Chronoshock]

Appears most of his past auctions were for sports equipment (shorts/shoes) and now all of a sudden he's peddling hundreds of thousands of electronics...

 

[TekViper]

nothing seems to have been done and theres no way to warn the bidders. someone hack his pic host and change the pictures to "THIS IS A SCAM" pics.

 

[DrPizza]

well, I hope for the sake of the winners, something happened/will happen to save them from being scammed... I sent notification to ebay that it was a scam much earlier in the day.
It's too bad that ebay can't be held accountable when they knew it was a scam (I'm not the only one to inform Ebay that it was a scam)

 

[TechnoKid]

it appears he no longer has any auctions? i just clicked the link in the OP and theres nothing. I sent a notice earlier today too.

Good eye Pistonboy! I think you saved a bunch of people some major cash / headaches.

All of his auctions were one day listings.

I'm glad I happened to come across this and as WW mentioned, hopefully this saved some ppl from getting hoaxed.

Oh yeah, one more scammer down, 99 million more to go

Thanks!

 

[Rage187]

Looks like someone fished some login and passwords from those bogus emails.

Notice he wants you to contact him before bidding, thats so he can have the money sent some place other then where it should be.

Probably a russian.

 

[dc724]

This must be the same guy. Can someone fill me in as to how I would go about reporting this guy to ebay.

by that reasoning, does dell routinely rob intel for the cpus?

No, but intel routinely buys CPU's from eBay to see if Dell (and others) have reported them stolen/missing.

If you are an employee who steals from computer companies, don't part it out on eBay.

yep, he loves that " Coins / Exonumia " category and $399...weird

go to 'help', contact us, then "report fake ebay emails and unauthorized account activity", then "unauthorized account activity", then "report another user's account as stolen, and then 'email'

give them the user id, and maybe a sentence or two why you think it's a fraud..
