I was sent a fake email from someone pretending to be ebay. It looks very real but I knew it wasnt right because that email isnt even a part of my ebay account. The address is ebaiy.com. How do I report this? Id like to forward it to someone who can deal with it but I cant even find an email on ebay to report stuff too. You have to go through this mile long process.

Why do you even want us to leave feed back if you are not going to process negative feedback when we click on the link? The seller needed to leave a better description of what he was selling. It was understood I was getting Nano with earbud and usb cord. As the seller knows that was not his intentions at all.

But i have not received any...

Is there some way to know when a 14 day buying and selling restriction will be lifted? I don't know when it started. I did received an ebay procedural warning on Dec 26, but they didn't say anything about an associated restriction on buying and selling. Will it be lifted 14 days from the Dec 26 procedural warning? How come they aren't more clear in the warning message about what's happening. And why don't they give the actual reinstatement date? Thanks.

Bought Item, Paid for Item, Received Item a month ago, feedback left by both parties, Seller now wants to cancel transaction and doesn't give a reason. How can this happen? What about the newbie buyers and how frustrating can this be? Can this affect the buyer if they do not agree to cancellation? Many more questions? And I know the seller is probably trying to get FVF back...

So if I'm Eligible for SP and I do everything right, PP eats the CC Chargeback for INR or Unauthorized Use? That can't possibly be true???? And if I have a Return Police, then my only exposure is someone returning a "Box of Rocks" when they claim SNAD? Is it that simple now? Regarding SNAD and Chargeback, Rules say if event not covered by Seller Protection, PP will give the funds to the CC company. It says nothing about being an intermediary to work out a SNAD dispute.

I am sending the item with insurance that I am purchasing on my own, as well as DC.

I bid & paid for an item 10 days ago. The seller left feedback for me just soon after I paid so he know he needs to send out the item I paid for. 4 days after I paid for it I sent the seller an email asking if the item was sent & never got a response. I just now sent another message asking if the item has been sent cause I haven't received it. The first 4 items I bought in ebay went through with no problems. The last 2 have been nothing but problems. Last time I got strung along with excuses...

Some user posting as three users has posted what seems to be a million ads selling slot machine secrets all over eBay. They seem to be in every category. I thought that was against ebay policy? It also looks like from the feedback they are receiving that the user is only selling a email. Is this also not illegal on eBay? This has been going on for over a month now. Why has ebay done nothing. Do you think its due to the fact that they are spending so much money to post the ads? I have...
