He's been at it twice tonight with at least 2 different IDs
I have a list of 8 ID's with exactly the same form.
And if you notice, you can't cut and paste the email. The entire description is a JPEG immage! So the ebay search robots don't pick up the @ on an email or a phone number.
I search a certain search parameter two or three times a day and I can spot him a mile off!
His latest attempt with the ID oddballtrucksuk09. 329 listings. However, I think some of them are proper. Some have a location of Bristol. All the 99p start ones with the @gmail? All have a location of UK. There are items on there for nearly £40k with proper descriptions. So if it's a hacked account, I feel sorry for the poor sod trying to run a business!

Need to be reporting the following one "en masse". Waaaay too cheap so I tried to ring the number. International ring tone. I then get a text with an email to contact. So I reeled him in! this is the (shortened) response: "Since I am in the isle of man and travel for work and therefore unable to meet anyone to view the car, there are only 2 ways to do this sale: A transport company to deliver the car to you and you send payment via escrow or you pay via paypal and I have the car delivered to you. Please let me know how you wish to proceed". At least he's not on an oil rig!!! www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2015-64-Ford-Fiesta-ST-2-White/183077166039?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

Posting links to ebay is worthless - Take screenshots & post them or print a PDF as every single link above has been removed.
Would of been useful to see what they were 'selling'.

As well as reporting them i used to message the "seller" via ebay and tell them their account had been hacked. It was probably a pointless effort, but worth trying I thought. If the account has good feedback and suddenly starts doing these listings it is a fair bet the account is hacked.

janeme09@gmail.com In th ebody of a ebay listing on a Harley1200 'Jane' did following 1. Sent me a pic of 'her' passport to validate 'her' id and requested same from me 2. Insisted i pay for bilke through PPal scheme and sent me a valid link to ppal www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/pay-after-delivery-terms (so far so good) 3. Then sent link to pay for bike & text to confirm (3 emails received) text directed me to occ.bz/chat/32668-79502 (genius!) then the so called PPal link was "eBay" <paypal@pp-payee.co.uk> which in turn was going to send me cash to Bank name: ING BANK Beneficiary name: IAN FILIP Beneficiary address: Viale Bodio 55, 20158, Milan, Italy Iban: IT49E0347501605000329886972 Swift/bic: INGBITD1XXX Bank address: Via Arbe 20125, Milan, Italy so the seller was bang on there is a ebay / PPal service that transfers cash and the first link is pukka but the payment was to be made to a spurious account not ppal Buyer beware / police informed

They "sell" anything and everything, but at about half price. The giveaway that it is a scam is the price and the wording used as well as contact by email buried in a jpeg so ebay scans cant spot it.

I showed interest in a Triumph Spitfire Mk2, listed as being in London. A nice red one that was going for £5000. I just received the following from 'Emma Jane Griffiths'....
I am sorry for the late reply. The car is still for sale and available for viewing in Inverness, Scotland. In good condition with no damages or faults. All paperwork present in my name. It has been used by my brother who unfortunately passed away 3 months ago and the car has been in storage since then. If this is going to be a quick sale, I will let it go for £5000 delivered at my costs.
See below some info on the car:
1966 Triumph Spitfire4 Mk2
Heritage Certificate Confirms Matching Body, Engine & Gearbox
Original Hardtop finished in old english white
Brand New Hood
Brand New Interior
Brand New Stainless Steel Bumpers & Over Riders
New Carpet Set
4 x New Tyres
The car has been subject to a full restoration and with a small amount of detail and time could be brought up to Concours Standard the underside has no Schultz and is very original
Full Respay inc Engine Bay
Engine, Gearbox & Diff all Rebuilt
Photos Available of underside and Restoration
The Spitfire presents beautifully and of particular Note are the Panel Gaps and the way the doors shut with a reassuringly good clunk,a tribute to the quality of Restoration.
These early Spitfires with there pretty bonnets & low bumpers have long been overlooked but now enthusiasts are recognising there potential
Regards, Emma Griffiths
Strange how the original hardtop is a different colour from the car!!
I've responded saying that I actually live in Inverness and I want to go view the car. I doubt I'll get a reply, but I'll waste their time if nothing else

cgjonesI was interested in a similar car but a GT6 Mk 2 at £7,000 the storey was her brother (the owner) died recently and she is clearing his estate remotely from Rome. she wanted to send me a PayPal 'pay on delivery' invoice. and said that I had 15 days to pay after delivery of the car. she sent me her passport photo to reassure me. i tried to send a copy of mine but the email kept bouncing back. which is how I found this thread. red flags red flags. I'm not sure what they are hoping to achieve. I'm not about to transfer £7,000 before I've even seen the car. This is really annoying as I'd happily pay twice that price for the car in the photos she/they sent. maybe I could track the owner down and make an offer. this is the displayed email address emvey99@gmail.com but given it bounced back for me it may have been ditched by now its funny because they kept saying 'for a quick sale' but it was them taking their time. someone should let this poor woman know here passport pic is being used. a call to the owner of this red mk 2 GT6 I would like to buy this car please !!!

I also spoke to them when they were called 'Ian'
Good English but all the same story with the car in Inverness and them in Rome, wanting money transferred directly to an Italian bank account.
The first paypal invite email is real, the rest are fake from the domain above. Then they ask you to pay direct!
On saying I had paid they sent me a tracking number for the car on a fake freight website, all very organised.
Somebody should give the guy in Bradford a visit.
