Is Ebay Fraud Rampant?
Let me preface this article by saying that I am a pretty experienced Ebayer. I have a feedback rating of nearly 500 and have been buying and selling (mostly buying) items on Ebay for years. And, I’ve had few problems with Ebay sellers over the years. I am disturbed, though, that if you do leave negative feedback for a fraudster you can be assured they will respond with negative feedback for you. Even after you’ve paid for their “not as described” or fraudulent auction. This is a big deterrent for Ebay buyers to leave negative feedback. Most buyers will just accept the loss and move on. I know because, shamefully, I’ve done this myself.
