Saw this and thought it sounds a little like what Andrew is doing with his new auction. It's the mystery guy..you know the one who got $7600 for the the "mystery envelope" from GP. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1469&item=5571722006&rd=1
He's not a copycat. He's the original! That's a good idea that he has. He already sold 5, which means $50 bucks. Wonder how many he will sell?
Hey Guys, Check this out 5572804132. It's in totally bizarre. Somebody actually copied my entire auction, pictures words and all. Is there anything I can do about it? I want people to know it's not me!! Ideas anybody???? I'll be waiting to hear from ya'll. Blessings, Pam He did change it to Pudding Man!! There is no pudding MAN!!!
Pam: go to this link and report them, ebay will pull it. http://pages.ebay.com/help/confidence/vero-image-text-theft.html
Thank you Ernie!! I just reported it. SURELY Ebay will pull that as much grief as they gave me. Thanks for your help, Pam
I can't believe people have the nerve to steal and post someone's exact words, picture and such! What are they thinking??? They don't even try to hide it by rewording it at all. I'm sure Ebay will pull this, hopefully before the 3 days is up.
A ton of people did that with mine too. I didn't mind cause it took some attention off of my auction. but the ones that used my dads picture I wasn't too happy with. I didn't report anyone though, People that watched my auction took care of the copy cats for me.
Found the page where it says that this is illegal; it has a link to report dups http://pages.ebay.com/help/confidence/vero-image-text-theft.html I reported it too, in case the person Pam reported to is asleep! Wanted to send THIEF!!!!! notes to the seller, but didn't want to take a chance that THAT was illegal. They haven't shut down the pudding thief, but they shut down Ernie's new auction! (see first post on this thread)! What's going on!!!!! It's still up there! Ignore the first 2 lines of my previous post - I didn't read an earlier one more carefully. I want ebay to have an 800 #! I want action NOW!!!! I reported it too, in case the person Pam reported to is asleep! Wanted to send THIEF!!!!! notes to the seller, but didn't want to take a chance that THAT was illegal. They haven't shut down the pudding thief, but they shut down Ernie's new auction! (see first post on this thread)! What's going on!!!!! LATER THAT MORNING It's still up there! I want ebay to have an 800 #! I want action NOW!!!![/QUOTE]
Thank you so much!! I appreciate you doing that. I have gotten lots of emails about it and have others saying they reported it. But it's STILL there, I just don't get it. Last time I looked though the "Pudding Man", he's NOT my Pudding Man, had 0 bids. Where is Ebay?? What happened to Ernie?? I need an Ebay rule book, because it seems that the honest people are getting pulled and the others....... well you already know that. Thanks again to everybody for helping me out. I truly appreciate it, Pam
