I need the DMF's help to shut down an Ebay thief
There is a seller on ebay that is listing moto parts (from my website and others), taking payment via Paypal, and then using stolen credit cards to order/ship from resellers (once again mine and others).
example- http://www.ebay.com/itm/Oberon-Racing-Style-Dry-Clutch-Plate-Ducati-Black-Gold-Red-Silver-/230918973276?_trksid=p2045573.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D27%26meid%3D5522348148820529389%26pid%3D100033%26prg%3D1011%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D230918973276%26
that is even a pic of the part on my bike. Roll Eyes
there are several different user accounts, but they are all
-really low priced
-free shipping
-seller in netherlands
I contacted ebay, but they don’t seem to be doing much about it.
So if you could...as you are on ebay...keep an eye out for these items and flag when you see one.
Maybe he'll get frustrated and start selling stolen Justin Beber collectibles instead

also- if any sponsors would like to know what to look for on the back end to spot the fraud orders...give me a ring, i would be glad to share
thanks in advance for the help

Bummer.  I will keep an eye out, though am not a big ebay buyer.  Like ducatigirl, I get my parts from you direct (just received my clutch/slider package today, in fact, so thanks.)

If there is anything else we can do to help, let us know.

I filed a report with ebay on that item citing the following of the available options:

Report Category: "listing practices"
Reason for Report: "fraudulent listing activities"
Detailed Reason: "suspect that a Listing is fraudulent"

If enough of us file the same report, maybe ebay will send Jeff's thief on his way.

"BRANDNEW SEALED 99%,"  Huh?

I don't understand the point if he's buying at full price and then reselling for less. What am I missing?

He's not buying with his own money.

The cards are stolen.

1) Thief steals your credit card details.
2) Thief lists goods he doesnt yet have on ebay for less than the going rate, for a nice quick sale.
C) Thief steals from Jeff by ordering goods using your stolen credit card to be shipped to ebay buyer. (You file an unauthorised purchase report with your bank, Jeff gets slugged with a chargeback, now he doesnt have the goods or the money).
4) Thief pockets the ebay sale $$

This business model seems familiar. Can't put my finger on it exactly, but i've seen it before.
