  • that is crazy 

  • hi, 2007 and its still going on 2011 so this should tell you something about this lovely site, thankyou.

  • This is a great eye-opener, I never thought that scamming would be this level, I always thought was a well run tight organisation, how wrong I was!! Thank you for this video, obviously the four dislikers are scammers! When you find an ad like this one do you report it straight away?

  • Ebay has a great responsibility & opportunity to establish safe transactions with a fair two-way feedback system of transaction reporting. So far they have failed by reasonable standards. Feedback and Paypal policy is exploited by fraudulent buyers to succeed with false "item not received" claims. This happens far too often without proper recognition of and despite proof provided by standard shipping documents. 98% of the time there are no on-line USPS international first class tracking updates.

  • thanx dude, I also wanted to buy a car but not anymore, it seem to good to be true

  • u saved my life! thanks brother!

  • tnx man

  • How the hell can they re-direct you to another site from the Ebay listings page?

  • guys i need your help . Recently i bought smth from ebay , paid for it directly with paypal . I didnt receive any kind of email from the seller for few days so i started sending messages and asking whats going on . Then after few days he replies saying he already shipped the product , though , in my ebay account under the "won/purchased" tab , at "shipped" tap , doesn't show this product as shipped .... so , whats really happened ? Tnx in advance !

  • ebay is full of scams! People who don't own cars trying to sell them etc. Beware. Go look & get the facts before you bid. If you can't see the vehicle don't even consider bidding on it! Get all the facts FIRST!

  • I hate those oversea's scammers. They make me sick

  • Thanks for the tip! This scam could apply to any other part of ebay as well. Just watch the URL.

  • good video. I rly hate when I come across password phishers like the one shown in this video.

  • beware of fake electronics too,most mp3 players and flash memories sold on ebay are fake,the memory size is fake,you buy a 16 GB pen drive but it won't hold more than 4GB,they can cause data loss and damages to your computer,so please try to check the sellers feedback and all information before buying anything on ebay or anywhere else online,...thanks for the video

  • Maan all my hopes went down ive been looking on ebay for a car and ive been searching on the internet like crazy about ebay motors if its fake or not but now all my hopes went back down, im scared now lol

  • How does ebay allow url changing from there auction... Like if i post an auction I have no power to change to url so how do they do that? It's wrong many people could get sucked in by that. Ebay needs to get it's act together I think they would be liable also in the event that someone would purchase from a link given off there site.

  • Thanks man i didnt know that. will keep my eye out for that one. if you got scams we should be aware of please post!!!

  • thanks for enlightening us!)

    like GLENN BECK.... LOL

  • usually people will message you in the email saying that they posted the car in craigslist but they will do the transaction on ebay so that you will be under ebays buyer protection. they sell it in a really really cheap price and will entice alot of ebayers

  • Thanks for posting this. Ive also seen a Corvette scam where there are several different user names selling the same car over & over. A quick look at sold history can find if a cars being resold & doesnt actually exist. The best clue for a scam is a rediculisly low buy it now.

  • thnks keep it up

  • just wanted to say thanks(belated) as around the time of posting this vid by watching it you helped me from being scammed out of £2500... thanks again

  • damn,,,  nice to know how to find out .... thank you man.

  • yeah id only buy stuff like atv's and pocket bikes and dirt bikes from giovanni they good company and if they scam u sue them

  • 5 Stars for you! THANKS! Keep it up!

  • wow due u rock!

    thx alot!

  • I was just scammed $12400 for 2 motorbikes by the same seller but the URL never changed to something wierd. I was told I had $20000 buyer protection but thats only with paypal not with the money transfer I used even though it said I did.

  • thanks thats helpful

  • Today I was almost scammed by one of these scammers. I was going to buy a 2007 Honda CBR600RR. For some reason I decided to check youtube lol. sure enough this video saved me $4000. THANKS!!

  • Glad it helped you!

  • what kinda rating did he have?

  • Sorry, I don't remember. I'm almost sure the member had a 100% positive since I would not buy a bike from someone with less. I have purchased 2 bikes and a SUV off eBay.

  • That is very helpful and I don't understand why eBay isn't keeping people informed about this stuff. I have had that happen a few times where I was asked to sign in. Thank goodness I didn't. Thank you for keeping us updated. I'll watch that URL

  • Good heads up.

    Thxs

  • excellent mike, ive bought 3 on ebay and been lucky but id never heard of this , a good reason to change passwords periodically.

  • Thanks.

  • Lesson, stay off eBay!

  • Not really...

    The lesson is be an educated buyer no matter where you buy. There are crooks everywhere, not just on ebay.
