Check this auction of mine 230042221042
I received a question through Ebay that asked something like, "Can you confirm that this item is the same as the one listed here". Following that, there was an http link that APPEARED to be on Ebay. I searched the link, and I got hacked!!
all my previous bidders got cancelled and the auction went back to the starting bid with only 6 hours left. I could not end it early, cancel it or even put in a buy it now for a buddy to click and end it. I was able to answer questions and post a Warning response, even though I got a warning message from ebay stating that I could not post answers with less than 12 hours to go. Somehow they posted, thank goodness. I've also been getting questions from other sellers of pool tables and cues, stating that they could get the link to work. So, their replies to this dirtbag were being sent to me!
There ought to be a way of getting in touch with Ebay in a HURRY when something like this happens, rather than reporting it and getting a message that it might take 24hrs for them to respond!! I wonder if I'll get charged when I relist....??
