Safe harbor time.

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 11:56AM

what is that?

Placid · October 28, 2002 11:59AM

eBay, where you report scumbags

Russ · October 28, 2002 12:01PM

Hey! This is the same crook that AjentJim nailed the other day! Same "Espana" in the location, same listing layout, just a different handle.

Russ, NCNE

DCAMFranklin · October 28, 2002 12:04PM

Didn't that last fraud, with the stolen pictures of the flowing hair half, list his location as "Espana"? I'm fairly certain of it. This is a brand new Ebay ID with zero(0) Feedback. I would bet it is the same fellow with a new ID.

He linked it to your Yahoo site http://i9.ac.yahoo.com/users/1/4/6/6/davidjw25121-img600x450-1035632120mvc_028s.jpg so just change the pict on your site to something like a pict of Bin Ladin saying "USA sucks and so do my auctions" or "don't deal with me I'm a thief" in the pict but keep the same file name http://i9.ac.yahoo.com/users/1/4/6/6/davidjw25121-img600x450-1035632120mvc_028s.jpg

i asked the other seller what the coin was doing listed at a different auction and provided a link for him. i wonder what will happen.

SilverEagleDave · October 28, 2002 12:07PM

DOG- That would crack me up. I think I would fall out of my seat if he did that! That is a good idea.

Russ · October 28, 2002 12:08PM

Keets,

I also sent him an eMail.

Russ, NCNE

SilverEagleDave · October 28, 2002 12:09PM

Oh and he just opened that account today also. I should hurry up and get my bid in before someone snipes me!

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 12:12PM

Heck after thinking about it makes my auction look better his is $800 mine is only $189

Russ · October 28, 2002 12:15PM

BD,

You REALLY need to nail this slimeball with a scan switch.

Russ, NCNE

SilverEagleDave · October 28, 2002 12:16PM

I agree, hook him up with a nice picture.

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 12:16PM

Is There A way I can not allow Bidders with 0 feedback from bidding on my auctions?

MastaHanky · October 28, 2002 12:19PM

Editting image out. The image will not accomplish what we are trying to achieve. Plus I don't want to be banned.

Bikingnut · October 28, 2002 12:20PM

I emailed him and mentioned that someone else has the same coin offered for a lot less. I like the idea of linking a different picture with his auction. the little gray box with the coin info under the picture is a dead give away of a link to a Yahoo auction.

SilverEagleDave · October 28, 2002 12:22PM

<----Just passed out! Why didn't I take your advice and not click on that link? Funny thing is, I had a friend that got a picture like that sent to his Ships E-mail account once and they scan those e-mails every once in awhile. Needless to say, he was extremely nervous!

Russ · October 28, 2002 12:24PM

MastaHanky,

That one would not be suitable because it would immediately be reported and eBay would close the auction. He needs to use something that will stay up for a while to let the world know this guy is a crook.

Russ, NCNE

Placid · October 28, 2002 12:26PM

Use this one if you want.

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 12:27PM

I tried Safe harbor use of a photo without owners permission all it does is tell me how to upload a photo. if anybody knows how to report him you have my permission

airplanenut · October 28, 2002 12:29PM

<< <i><< I agree, hook him up with a nice picture. >> A friend of mine had the same thing happen to him, so he replaced his image with the linked image below. WARNING: DO NOT CLICK ON THAT LINK. IT IS EXTREMELY GROSS AND CONTAINS MALE NUDITY. I AM WARNING YOU!!! DO NOT CLICK ON THIS LINK EVER (Will edit if requested.) >>

DEAR LORD- NO JOKE!!!

Come on... two tests tomorrow and this is how I have to sleep??? I'm suing

(apology coin could be arranged- please PM to inquire)

<< <i>I tried Safe harbor use of a photo without owners permission all it does is tell me how to upload a photo. if anybody knows how to report him you have my permission >>

Just make a new photo with the same file name and reupload it... make it one that will show how the seller is a crook, but won't get the item kicked of eBay (like Hankey's picture)

Best of luck!

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 12:41PM

i already canceled the yahoo auction it wont let me up load a new picture i made a scan of a new washington in the holder

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 12:49PM

I Blocked Him From Bidding On My auctions so if he does sell it he can not buy mine

Placid · October 28, 2002 12:55PM

Nevermind

BIGDAVE · October 28, 2002 1:12PM

Thank you I reported it But One of you great board members already did thanks Ya"ll

mnmcoin · October 28, 2002 2:04PM

Just wrote him to say "I just wanted to let you know you are being watched---ebay mafia"

mo <><

keets · October 29, 2002 7:48AM

i just went and looked at his auction and he canceled it. score another one for the eBay police!!!

Russ · October 29, 2002 7:51AM

<< <i>The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing. >>

Yeah, it was an "error" all right.

Russ, NCNE

beorn · October 29, 2002 7:59AM

i sleep better at night just knowing you guys are keeping track of these jerks

Bikingnut · October 29, 2002 11:24AM

I got a reply from him. Last night I emailed him stating someone else had the very same coin listed for 189. he replied that i could buy it from Big Dave.

BIGDAVE · October 29, 2002 12:09PM

Bikingnut

did he say to buy it from BigDave were those his words?

Bikingnut · October 29, 2002 1:05PM

No he just said you can buy it from the other guy.

leothelyon · October 29, 2002 2:55PM
