Well, I'm only stating how horrible the Torre is, as well as the Obama (sorry bout the Barack spelling error..haha), Woods and Musial. If a scammer did get into your account, I'm sorry, but in the meantime, horrifically bad forgeries amuse and horrify us all.

I guess I don't understand how it works when someone hijacks an eBay account. The Tiger Woods auto was apparently listed 4-5 days ago - is it that difficult and does it take that long to get eBay to take corrective action? And how did the "corned beef hash" auctions get interspersed between, and uploaded after, the bad auto auctions? Are they some kind of auto-extended prior listings?

Is the Federer/Agassi ball auction the scammer's also? It was listed subsequent to the Woods auction, but I see it includes linkage to a photobucket account registered to SteakNchop7. Did the scammer copy photobucket links from your older auctions to make his scam appear legitimate?

I have almost all of my accounts with the same password. I actually don't know if that ball is linked onto my photobucket account, as I can still get on with my password and I never saw it. Maybe someone who knows how to hack an account knows how to do something like that possibly? I guess the person is continuing to list the corned beef hash backgrounds. Also, I am not an eBay addict and don't check it everyday. I have better things to do than look at my eBay account. I reported this to eBay customer service earlier today. I would assume they will respond in the next couple days. I would appreciate if my honesty is unquestioned, is that okay? How would you feel if first of all someone got onto your account and now a bunch of people are trying to get you in trouble for something you didn't do? I can sue you for telling untruthful things about me. Do you want to go there? I would also like if a moderator deleted this thread, as I don't want a false rumor to spread. If anybody spreads any of this, which I insist is untrue, I certainly will sue. My sister is a high stature lawyer and I will have no problem doing this and making more money than any frickin "Barrack" Obama baseball would sell for if I even listed it. Or how about I sell a Jesus Christ/God signed baseball next? How about that? Do you think I'm a frigging moron? I have been in this hobby for a while and no Obama autograph looks like that. And do you think with my spotless reputation I would even think, even think of posting sports autograph auctions that are fake on an account that beared my name? Are you that naive? Why would I use my name to do it? Being a member of several sports card forums, I know that things like this get posted. I mean, if I saw this I would have posted it too. So why don't you just quit trying to accuse an innocent person and save yourself the fifty G you'd have to pay when I sue you!??????? Okay, now STHU and delete this thread.

At the risk of being sued by your "high stature" big sister lawyer. Your exact words can be found above and I quote "I guess the person is continuing to list the corned beef hash backgrounds".

So... if the "Highjacker" is continuing to list the corned beef backgrounds, and you claim that you reported the highjacking to ebay yesterday morning, then why does your feedback show 'corned beef' completed sales as far back as January 3rd of this YEAR!

Also, 91 out of 99 positive feedbacks you have accumulated in the last month are via "corned beef/seashore" backgrounds that sold for anywhere from .01 - .45 cents!

I also noticed repeat buyers of your backgrounds and I have no doubt that a little more research would find that those buyers are "padding" their feedback with their penny auction winnings.

Now, I would never insinuate that you would do such a thing, as I sure don't want to get sued by your 'high stature' big sister lawyer!

There is a flip-side to all of this legal mumbo-jumbo. We, the community at net54 is blessed and/or cursed with a plethora of attorneys. Some of which may even defend me pro bono if I find myself in a legal bind.

Once again, I want to make it perfectly clear that I am not accusing you of any wrong doing, I am simply stating the facts, period.

With my warmest personal regards, Jimmy

Attn Leon. I haven't listed my last name as of yet due to the gentleman not even listing his first name. Please advise.

Speaking not about autographs, not about auctions, and not about corned beef, but only about your rant and writing style, I would suggest you ask your sister for the definition of:

"res ipsa loquitur."

If your Ebay account was really hacked as you claim it has been, then you should be "thanking" us, because without this thread you wouldn't have known about your Ebay account being hacked. Think about that. That Tiger Woods was listed on Jan. 29. 2010. This thread started yesterday (Feb.3, 2010). If your Ebay account has been hacked then we have served you correctly and properly by alerting you to the hack. No one here has ruined your rep. The hacker has ruined your rep (if your Ebay account was hacked). If this thread wasn't posted yesterday (if your Ebay account was really hacked) this would all continue without your knowledge and you would continue to be in the dark about it. So if your Ebay account was really hacked you should be "thanking" us.

After that post, I think you can delete the word "spotless" in future messages. Sheesh.

Why do I always find these types of threads so difficult to understand? At this point I have no idea who is doing what to whom.

Recap for Barry:

1) Some really bad autograph auctions are listed on Ebay. (Musial, Obama, Tiger Woods, et al.)

2) Seller comes on here to claim that it's his account, but that it's been hijacked.

3) This leads people to look at his other auctions and his feedback. The item he sells the most of? A picture of a plate of corned beef hash. He has sold many in the past. He has many more listed. This type of thing is a fraud used to build feedback. Ebay has not recognized that feedback seems to be equal whether the item bought/sold is a $10,000 baseball card or a 15 cent, electronic picture of hash. He has even "purchased" a $1 bill for $6.10, so he is working both sides of the scam.

4) He has continued to list new "hash" pictures, even after his account was "hijacked." This leads us to believe his account has not been hijacked.

5) When it is pointed out to the seller, he loses it. Claims his reputation is "spotless!" His sister is a lawyer of "high stature!" He threatens to sue everyone and is sure he will collect $50,000 from each. (This business model will surely generate more revenue than the 15 cent pictures, right?)

Just to protect yourself, anyone posting in this thread shoud post their $50,000 in an escrow account! I'm sure Leon will hold the money until the lawsuits clear.


(Cash, Checks, and Money Orders are OK. Paypal, add 3%!)

Well written, Jim. If his account was really hacked then why was a new "Hash Background" auction listed just yesterday? Crooks hack accounts to sell high-end junk. Why would the hacker list a "Hash Background" auction that "you" started to list on Jan. 1, 2011? Geez.

With you all the way, Barry. Can't tell the player without a scorecard. Thanks, Jim VB, for the translation. My only contribution to this thread will be this free photo of a plate of chorizo and eggs. Looks like hell, tastes like heaven.
