Awareness Website Supported By The Webmaster To Educate The
Internet Buyer To The Dangers Of Shopping On eBay!
Meg Whitman Smiles For The Camera On A Recent TV Interview, And Speaks Of The Magic Of eBay.. Unfortunately She Does Not Speak About The "Dark Side Of eBay!" eBay used to be a great place to trade online. But corporate greed and the $$ that pays their legal team, has made eBay a vast jungle surrounded by legal land mines!

09/25/2007, eBay continues to suspend/limit good sellers due to their sloppily programmed bot that is studying sellers feedback. Neg a deadbeat and they retaliate and neg you back! Then eBay suspends your sellers account!! Watch the below video by Yankee Joe.. Puts it all into prospective!
09/16/2007, Ina Steiner Reports On Bad Data Returned By eBay Completed Item Search! If you use eBay's completed item search to research your buying/selling costs the data being returned from eBay could be false!
Seems it has been screwed up for about 20 days now without any notification on eBay's announcement board. In a typical eBay response Loni Durzy said: "It's something we chose not to announce on, but rather address as it came up if people were to ask," eBay is knowingly supplying false data and is charging some sellers 25.00 per month to boot!!

11/15/2007, eBay Shoots Innocent Bystanders! In an apparent failed attempt to control scammers, eBay in their usual manner wreaks havoc on innocent Sellers! Fire Meg explained it pretty well in his Blog entry titled "Is Vladuz The Good Guy" back in February!
It is visually apparent that eBay has lost control of their site, and software alone can not solve this huge problem! It will take hiring more personnel to scan listings suspected as fraudulent, and a human being to make a decision. Something Meg and Company will never do, It cost's money!!
Sellers like Bargainland continue to sell with 90% Positive Feedback! It is clearly evident that eBay is looking the other way for sellers that Pay Them Big $$$, While eBay crucifies small sellers like the below screen shot shows!
11/13/2007, PayPal API Data Breach! Scammers Sending Fake Second Chance Offers Using A Huge Hole In PayPal's Back Door!

I have made a screen shot of it incase eBay Again tries to bully their web host into removing the screen shots of the scammers tools to commit the crime!

08/27/2007, eBay Stir's Up A Hornets Nest Suggesting Sellers Cheat Retail Stores! In A Quarterly Power Sellers Newsletter eBay Suggested Using Retail Stores Return Policy To Maximize Profits! "The newsletter contained an article, "Sourcing for Profitability," which includes a tip called "Returns mean low risk." "When sourcing at retail, check the return policy before you buy. If items are returnable, you can always return the inventory if you find it doesn't sell at a good profit." Karen Dudnikov of Tabberone.com poked fun at eBay over the newsletter's advice in a parody article entitled, "Ebay Tells Sellers To Cheat Stores To Sell Merchandise On eBay!" The article states, "Retail stores are not in the business of consigning merchandise to eBay sellers." More On This Story Here.

The Below eBay Motors Discussion Board Thread Is Interesting! The Cars True Owner Said He Has Tried To Report It, But Is Getting The Run Around From eBay! Boy Don't This Sound Familiar!! The Apparent Fact Is, Meg Has Nobody Minding The Store On Weekends!! Giving The Scammers A Free Run Of Her Marketplace! Updated 06/17/2007 10:54PM EST, This Scam Is Still Going! Sometime After Midnight PST When eBay Staffers Come To Work It Will Eventually Get Pulled! Updated 06/18/2007 07:15AM EST, I Am Waking Up Having My Morning Cup Of Coffee, And What Do You Know, It's Still There! This Is The First Time A Weekend Scam Car Has Not Been Pulled By eBay During The First Night Of Business! There Must Be A TON Of Scam Reports To Follow Up On! Updated 06/18/2007 9:50PM EST, Dang!! It's Still Scamming!! Is eBay's Staff So Incompetent They Can't See This Is A Scam?? Duuuu.. I'll Take All Of Them In The World In This Condition For $5800.00! The Way This Scam Scam Is Going, I Wouldn't Be Surprised If It Ends On Its Own! Updated 06/19/2007 9:05AM EST, It's Still Running.. The Energizer Bunny Can't Keep Up With This Listing! How Many eBay MBA's Does It Take To Change That Burned Out Light Bulb?? Updated 06/19/2007 2:30PM EST, 6 Hours To Go.. Looks Like It Will Close On It's Own, And Then Be Available By Completed Item Search! Updated 06/19/2007 9:35PM EST, eBay Finally Pulled This Scam Listing! Note The Below Screen Capture Does Not Display The Usual Invalid Item Warning Page, Just 0 Items Found For That Item Number.. But Does Display A Huge Banner Ad For Monster.com, That eBay Is Getting Paid To Display! eBay Used To Display A Warning That The Listing Had Been Removed From eBay Or Was Over 90 Days Old! But It Seems To Management, That Selling Banner Ads Is More Important Than Protecting The Community!
05/13/2007, It is a really sad eBay day when sellers start running (and paying for) Fraud Awareness Auctions! Meanwhile eBay is busy puffing wall street with write up's like this one, while eBay Execs exercise their stock options, becoming millionaires over night! And it is said that Meg Whitman's job is to build corporate revenue, who cares if she sacrifices the community members who do her dirty work for Free! And some who are even paying for the privilege of working for free! However some of her unpaid volunteer help is getting wore out fighting eBay's battle with the scammers! And some are ready to quit!
When You Come Across One Of These "Horny Housewives" Before You Can See Her Hoochie, You Are Redirected OFF OF eBay To The Scammers Website, And Are Presented With A Phony eBay Sign In Page!
This eBay Redirect Scam Is Nothing New! In Fact The Federal Government www.us-cert.gov Issued This Warning About The Serious eBay Redirect Issue A YEAR AGO! And eBay Still Has Not Fixed It! I Have Reported This Issue Many Times, And I'm Sure eBay Knows All About It! The Cure Is As Simple & Easy As Stripping Any Redirect Scripting Out Of Listings HTML Code On Submit! Meanwhile eBay Is Feeding Everyone A Big Load Of Bunk About Rob Chesnut's "Proactive Fraud Reduction Policy" Which Appears Not To Be Working, As The Scammers Are Still Pillaging The Life Out Of The Community! While eBay Pumps Their Stock Up, And eBay Execs (3 In About 1 Month) Excersize Their Stock Options Becoming Millionaires! Note The Time Remaining On This Listing Search Result, It Went Live On The eBay Website At Least 28 Minutes After Being Submitted! What Happened Rob Chesnut?? Looks Like You Have Been Caught In Another Lie! "Proactive Fraud Reduction" My Azz!
It Is My Personal Belief, That When The Stock Music Stops, There Will Be No Chairs For The Small Retail Investor, And Many Of The Big Brokerage Houses As Well! Where Is Your Money Invested??? Scamming On eBay Is So Easy, A Cave Man Can Do It!
