I am starting to feel the same way, I am paranoid everytime I log on. I am constantly looking for signs of scams as I search for items, I always look up at the address bar to make sure I am actually still on the ebay site.
A couple of weeks back I was checking out some Kubota tractors, it seemed like the scam units way outnumbered the legit ones!
I am surprised that ebay stock has not taken more of a hit due to this.
Although I suspect the drop from Jan 06 to mid summer, probably was in part due to these scams.
Steve I really think you would be doing a great service putting this out in print. I fear average Joe public is not aware how extensive these scams have gotten.
