CAUTION Eddiesrecords on Feebay

[T205 GB]

The seller eddiesrecords (rings a bell for some reason) has either had their account hacked or they have stolen hundreds of scans and placed them at $1 starts to sell too would be unsuspecting buyers. Has a bunch of different pics with different backgrounds, cards listed by other sellers (probably the real owners), and had a plethora of Cobbs and Gehrigs listed last night that were not his. Last night a bunch of them had probstein, deans, and com water marks on the pics. Looks like some are gone but others are not reported yet.

Appreciate the update and warning

This commonly happening. Someone is definitely hacking accounts. Main give away is there are three lines in a row in the listing that say does not apply. I forgot what they are - bin number or something.

All of this baloney with eBay has left me cold. I haven't bought anything there in six months. I got fed up with searches coming up with a million things other than what I am searching for. Even before that, I have seen the things I search for (old wood tube radios, railroad timetables, and yes, baseball cards) in far less numbers than just a few years ago. If you are into fakes, counterfeits, or way overpriced old stuff and all sorts of modern trinkets and gee-gaws, well, eBay is the place for you. For me, what was once my go to site for the things I like is now dried up and gone.

Looks like another seller has been hacked?
Way too many nice cards and the hacker didn't even remove the references to Probstein or 4 Sharp corners on some of the scans.

I'm not familiar/handy with reporting this to eBay so if someone else is inclined, I'm sure many would appreciate that.

1) Scroll down on an item page to the description section. Click on Report Item at the top right.
2) Select "Listing Practices", then "Fraudulent Listing Activities", then "You suspect that a listing is fraudulent."
3) Click "Submit report."

Here are 4 other accounts the same person hacked. When you click on the first image of each auction, they direct you to buy the item via their website, not eBay. I was able to follow them, because they kept including the same Sandburg glove.
