After two weeks, eBay is still being bombarded with MILLIONS of scam and fraudulent listings. eBay had been removing the listings, but now that it is the weekend, it seems that they’ve taken a break.
Sort of a bit of a disjointed video with an aptly titled theme song.

It seems that ebay and paypal might be up to no good with this latest alleged “glitch”!

Does it strike anyone funny that all these “glitches” are constantly happening, yet none of them are ever in the user’s favor? If they truly were “glitches” there would be some more random distribution of the effects. They would favor the users at least some of the time. Statistically, that would happen 50% of the time.

This is truly something that needs to be looked into by proper authorities!
I urge and advise everyone to complain!

Here are some links to start off with.

It appears to me that ebay just doesnt care who gets scammed in recent wks i have been sent constant spoof emails from people trying to steal my money and i keep notifying ebay and they just dont care so this is a warning if you are going to buy on ebay be extremely cautious.

The truth is, they're helpless and scared. And unable to find all the holes.

Google "vladuz + ebay" to see how vulnerable eBay's systems are (read: wide open to hackers). Or visit FireMeg at http://firemeg.blogspot.com/

I heard CNN was supposed to run a big story about them last week, but then eBay bought a whole bunch of advertising, so they squelched it. That's how eBay avoids all kinds of bad press.
