New Ebay Scam Auctions
 
With the current trend of ebay scam ads going on anyone recognize this car. Michigan vintage front plate 14M-035, Silver COPO and or COPO Clone, becasue someone is using the images in what is probably a scam. Clues are private auction, has no clue what he is describing, will ship the car after receiving a $999 deposit. Vague description of location, hasn't sold anything ever. Seller legion 9

If this car picture belongs to anyone you might want to inform Ebay.

imo, if ebay doesn't do something about this kind of crap, they're gonna be shooting themselves in the foot. when it comes to large dollar items like this no one will trust the items listed on their site, and they will become nothing more than a flea market.

How would Ebay go about stopping stuff like this? There is no way to screen the millions of items put up for auction every day. By the time it is caught, someone has already been screwed. If Ebay finds a way to police the auctions, the scammers will come up with something new. Ebay needs to send an email to all users describing these auctions and how they work. All we, as users of the car websites, see are the auto related scams. I'm sure there are plenty of other items that we never hear about.These scammers are making money off the greed of the Ebay users. The people that are getting scammed are the ones that are going for the "deals that are too good to be true."

if they could some how regulate the big money items, i'm sure the amount of those type items listed are a great many also. its such a shame, i guess i need to come back to reality and understand the world we live in.
