I have been keeping a document record of each of these sellers, what date I saw them, what their feedback score is, how many listings in each category, what the listings are (generically) and the anonymous names of the fake feedback on hacked accounts. Quite a few have the same anonymous feedbackers leaving positives, so they are obviously the same scammers listing. EBay assures you that if the seller is NARU'd for fraudulent activity, they are unable to create new accounts. That may be so, but it doesn't stop them hacking someone else's account.

They have friends leaving positive feedback so that buyers think that there is just a delay,(so they hold of

leaving negative feedback).

These scammers will have other accounts already set up ready to go,(they will also buy accounts from others

and then just inform the true account holders on what to tell eBay).

So the scam listings are removed,feedback and scam items removed and the account holder has made some

money as well,so they just leave the account for next time,(those accounts can be revived a year later and after

listing a few items they are back to 100%).

So they can be "hijacked" again.

It's an on going cycle.
