eBay Listing Scam Alert on a 1993 SP Derek Jeter PSA 9

It appears someone is using a cell phone image from a computer screen (out of all ways) to pawn off an item as their own. This new seller has (0) feedback and its so obvious that something is off. I don't understand how so many people can bid on an item without questioning the obvious. With two minutes of research, you can clearly see that someone else already has the real card posted and up for auction.
I've notified eBay twice of this listing and yet they haven't responded to me or taken down the listing in question.
Here is the scam listing:

Why does the real listing have a PSA front and BGS back? lol
That error probably cost them a few hundred dollars but at least we know that Dave & Adams is legit.
I also sent them a message with the item number of the imposter seller so they can also take that up with eBay.
I'm just amazed at how some (not so) smart folks can place a bid with someone who is selling a high dollar item using a cell phone picture of a computer screenshot from a seller with zero feedback.
Scum
I reported it as well. I actually sent the seller questions too.
I notified Dave and Adams as well. I hope eBay removes it. Hate to see anyone get scammed on eBay.
why would anyone bid this card. no way that is a fake listing.
love how it was cropped and poorly coined LOL does he really think someone would fall for that? and shame on Dave & Adams listing showing a PSA front and BGS back view. thats just shoddy business and laziness. especially on a $5000 card.
MEATBALL!!

And the bid for $2,700 (as well as the retracted $2,800 bid) are from his shill accounts
Yup. I've notified eBay twice and they still haven't taken it down. Even providing item the listing ID for original and still nothing. Amazing, Someone is about to get screwed over just in time for Christmas.
This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available
His "Feedback" is hilarious. 5 comments all from the same person running other new accounts,
Wow I am aww struck, this looks beautiful!! Worth every dollar I spent then some

He's back at it again. Here's his listing for a 2019 Panini Prizm Zion Williamson: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2019-Panini-Prizm-Purple-Pulsar-Zion-Williamson-248-RC-Rookie-6-35-RARE/362881661003?hash=item547d6eb84b:g:vVUAAOSwW89eHcJR&LH_Auction=1
He took the photo from probstein's auction for the same card: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2019-20-Panini-Prizm-Purple-Pulsar-248-Zion-Williamson-RC-Rookie-6-35-034-RARE-034-/372903028373?hash=item56d2c0a695:g:bdQAAOSw1LJeEjsJ&nma=true&si=kaVGzPL99%2BWDBnHVA3nCaOiMsiQ%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
He now has a positive feedback of 5, but when you look at it, all five positives are from two different buyers with a total of, you guessed it, five positive feedbacks. My first clue was the nature of all five positives, very odd. So, it appears to me he is buying his own cards with two other accounts to pad his positives.

What in the world is this random autograph auction of his??

but they are "GAURANTEED HOFers"
love how his auctions always include some game/gamble which im sure is against ebay rules....
HERES THE FUN PART- Lets have some fun!! Inside 5 of the pics I placed 5 valuable sportscards to go along with the Autograph pics- So you get double the fun and ALOT MORE VALUE!! When you buy one or however many you buy send me a number from 1-500 and thats the autographed picture you will recieve!! So if you buy 3 send me three numbers from 1-500 and so forth. You could end up with ???
oh and the "FOMO" scare tactic...
"IM GIVING THIS LISTING 24 MORE HRS THEN ITS GONE AWAY FOREVER!! I JUST CANT IMAGINE FOR $68 - YOU ALL DONT WANT ORIGINAL PHOTOS AUTOGRAPHED WITH C.O.A's ..I cant nor will I drop the price and just give these HALL OF FAME photos away. So I guess the live auctions in N.Y and L.A will get them. No big deal Im gonna get paid for them either way. This way was more fun and was hoping to make some friends and get good ratings at the same time. But its all good. I will reveal the # of envelope where the expensive cards are too."
You guys are killing me here. This is just too much.😂😂
Cheese sandwiches! A scam like this could drive a man to eat cheese sandwiches!
