oh the write up.

I just checked the comments and it appears as though someone is recommending calling the police in their location. Do you think local law enforcement has any ability to do something about the problem?

I believe someone that this seller defrauds has a chance of getting their own law enforcement involved as, generally speaking, it is local law enforcement that is supposed to protect you. We can only hope so. I have spoken with authorities about them but I am not a victim and the authorities I spoke with aren't the perfect ones to help.....

If I'm not mistaken, investigating a criminal act such as fraudulently representing an item for sale in eBay, would involve federal criminal code (interstate commerce), and would therefore be the jurisdiction of the FBI or another federal LE agency. Local LE might be the right place to start, though, as they would be able to make the necessary notifications.

Isn't it a shame that we talk about local law enforcement getting involved, the FBI, other federal protection agencies, etc. - and the one entity it should start with - eBay - doesn't do a damn thing about it.

Eventually they might but this seller also sells a lot so ebay probably doesn't want to lose the revenue.

I think you are correct, in that since these are internet type crimes, they can have a federal jurisdiction. But local law enforcement is the place to start (and usually finish) with this type of crime. My only hope is that Battlefield is so pervasive the Feds would take a look. For them to get really involved there needs to be something worth their time, quite honestly. Generally a smaller ebay seller won't meet the FBI threshold for taking a case, from my informal, layperson understanding. And only 203 current chances at fraud here

I wonder if battlefield were a banner advertiser they'd get this much attention?

I was just going to post that. I also noticed her % went down again. Hopefully those that phone the police have good luck.
