Default How to report shill bidders to the FBI

When you suspect this I suggest you report it as a crime for investigation
with shill bidders. Seller can get up to 10 years - www.cybercrime.gov to
learn more.

Engaging Law Enforcement on suspicious activity is your job also. Don't
neglect that aspect. If we want ebay to stay clean, it has to happen. I had
a suspicious reverse shill expose my reserve, so I am making a report
(Administrative Cancel). The FBI is cracking down (at least as I understand
it).


Cyber crime of shills is very catchable in the long run. Since you provided
email addresses and IP;s in using the site, reverse lookups of public
infomation can track down networks of shills. Shilling requires a naive
seller or bidder. Report the suspected crime not just to ebay. Keep ebay
informed if you plan to report suspicious activity. Shilling on ebay may be
somewaht common, but it's a stupid crime. You'd have to do enough to make it
worth while, and then your activity is noticed by the fraud investigation
systems for targeting.

If you are a criminal - stop, If you are thinking about doing it - don't.
There are ways to catch you that even a ordinary computer person like me
knows. Besides remember even the police buy and sell on ebay. 1 in 99
sellers is likely in Law Enforcement, legal (attorney), a security or in
some type of justice role. I am not, but do I really want to take a
chance???

I have used Intellius for one background check in another area (not ebay),
it costs but was worth it.

How do they know who you are shilling with... Google links and social
networking, is just the start.

Vigilant reporting is key, and not just to ebay....

The problem with shill bidding is that ebay profits from it, so it is
in their best interests to turn a blind eye. Smack yourself a few
times to wake yourself up from the dillusional dream you're living in
if you think otherwise.

yea because the federal government does not have enough to worry about
with our entire country falling apart, 2 wars, a ****ty economy etc
etc etc. Lets have the FBI look into shill bidding, that's a REAL
pressing issue.

What a waste of time, ****ing idiot.

You've cross posted to three newsgroups, you ****in' dickwad.
Something tells me you don't have the permission of
every subscriber of every group to be their proxy
spokesman.

Now go put your church lady dress back in the closet
and get back to work.
