Investigation by eBay Trust and Safety into real fraud by eBay is almost non-existent, and limited to small timers. Fraudsters with Power Seller status are basically immune to any real delving into counterfeit products and fraudulent sales methods by eBay.

Ebay needs to face the fact it is NOT a big yard sale. If they were, they would have been taken down years ago for knowingly harboring thieves and profiting from sales of stolen property.

Best,

Sometimes it makes me think twice about the news I read on PC World. Some of it sounds to good to be true. The website is no longer a safe haven, period. Let's just pull the plugs completely. The word safe doesn't even fit in the category anymore.

Happened to me. My account sent out like 50 emails and I got an email from ebay letting me know that my account was compromised. This happened on Sept. 12. Kind of late huh? Not sure how much ebay can be trusted.
