Another hijacked ebay account..... Please Report! New one added

ifthevamzarockin · March 12, 2023 7:45PM

This appears to be another one of those that they list 57,000 new listings all ending at the same time.
Notice the photo in the listing says "Buy it now only" "No bidding allowed" "All bids will be removed"
This same scam pops up every once in a while most of the time it has been accounts in other countries that have been hacked.
Buyers Beware!!!
Please Report!!!

I called ebay to report this account but I don't have a bunch of confidence in the CSR I talked to.
She said "I don't know anything about coins" I told her you don't need to know anything about coins just report the account to your safety & security team.

Let's get some more reports on this one!
Thanks for your help!

They even hijacked listing photos from Canyon City Coins.

Report submitted!

This a long ongoing scam. The same items have been posted under hacked accounts at least thirty times by my count. Ebay will do nothing. The purported seller, who is known to me, has been notified.

Thank you! If the account owner reports it ebay may be quicker to resolve the problem.

It's like whack-a-mole with these listings.

ifthevamzarockin · March 12, 2023 10:35PM

These account hacks have been going on for a while now, not sure why ebay can't improve their security.
It doesn't make me feel good that they have all of my personal info, at least with PayPal your banking & SSN were protected.

Seller in France. Pay in Euros. Items shipped from Las Vegas. Run Forrest run!

Reported last nigh and removed.

Listings gone now... based on inputs here, they will be back by tonight under different accounts. Cheers, RickO

Looks like ebay has removed the listings from the latest hijack.

TomB · March 20, 2023 8:12PM

This is a persistent one who uses images and/or links to ensnare folks. It just keeps going and going and going...

dsessom · March 21, 2023 7:41AM

This is why I only buy from a smallish group of trusted sellers on Ebay.

alefzero · March 25, 2023 1:19PM

Seems a lot of us reported that highjacked account. Here is another obvious one.

Even has Julian's 1799 BB-184 dollar, with the same images and title that is listed as a currently offered direct purchase. (I informed him.)

I saw it and reported it as well...

alefzero · April 2, 2023 6:38PM

Same crew, using bo19531 now (https://www.ebay.com/str/rtdiffusion)

burfle23 · April 2, 2023 7:14PM

Reported...

TomB · April 2, 2023 7:16PM

Already reported by me hours ago, but ebay had taken no steps that I could tell.

wev · April 2, 2023 8:02PM

Same half dozen items listed in the American coin silver category. The listing are always exactly the same, but with a new bogus seller ID. Ebay does not seem to care. Luckily the mandatory off ebay BIN prices are hugely over market, so nobody has gotten bit -- so far.

burfle23 · April 3, 2023 4:21AM

Coin listings are gone...
