I'm pretty sure most of you don't use Yahoo! Auctions, but check this out. I suspect vickmackesq is using afroman19792002 to bid up most all of his auctions.http://csearch.auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/cuser?userID=vickmackesq&acc=us

afroman19792002 sold a 1955 Koufax, but did not deliver it. http://auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/auction/86913126

vickmackesq sold the same card, scan and all a few months later. http://auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/auction/88148606

Both ID's show San Diego as home. You need a Yahoo! login to check the links. What do you think?

Sounds like Adamsdad who used to do this kind of crap on eBAY. That is, until enough members of this board bothered him and eBAY so much that he quit and went to Yahoo.

The FBI out of San Diego ran a sting about this type of thing (shill bidding) and nabbed some people. Too bad they didn't get this creep.
