Default eBay Fraudulant Listing!!

Posted By: Josh Wulkan

I don't think so. I'm not sure what the guy was hoping for, but it was listed at 9:07 and sold at 9:08, so the item was actually only visible for about a minute. That seems unusual to me, so I thought maybe the guy was just looking to improve his feedback by stealing an image and a description, listing it with a buy it now and having a friend or an alias bid on it. No monetary transaction would take place, but the guy would be improving his feedback and percentage. Seems possible to me, but I have no idea. I feel bad if this was legit and the buyer actually already paid by Paypal or something.
