It might be a bit tricky to pick out but if eBay ever have an issue with you it won't come from eBay.com but eBay.co.uk.

And we here in the UK don't spell "unauthorized" with a Z, and it's bad English to use "misappropriate" instead of inappropriate.

I don't know what possesses people to scam, they're obviously failing in life or something.

Yeah, I know, but I wouldn't be too bothered.
If I didn't pay the listing fees, they'd suspend my account.
That's a good thing.
And nobody would use mine anyway.

The idea behind the scam isnt necesarily to steal the account holders credit card details, but to put up perhaps 5-6 popular items in a 24 hour auction and wait for the money to roll in.

Heh, even if someone steals my account, they'll get feck all from it, as I joined before eBay made credit card details manditory.
Of course, it means that I can't change my email address now that the account I originally registered with is gone, but, I'm sure I could just email whoever I'm buying from telling them that it's me who bidded.

I rock.

How do you come to that conclusion?

Anyway, I'm just saying you'd have to be quite incredibly stupid to fall for one of these things.
