Listed 3 times with email contact details in description. Scam listing I'm afraid.

The car itself has no MoT history whatsoever incidentally so if it exists, it's been off the road a long time.

Hi this car belongs to me , it used to be red and was exported to Italy for a long time hence no history as this is not the original reg. Have reported to Ebay.

Its been for sale on ebay 20 times in the last six months to my knowledge by the same scam artist that hijacked my account. As soon as hes taken down he starts again within minutes so expect it to be sale for many months to come. Always uses a photo as the despription to fool ebay fraud scanning.

He used to be located in ' U. k ' this time hes not too sure if hes in the UK or Germany !

It's the location of the person holding the account that's been hijacked I presume! Guessed or stolen password is required to do this and I've even sent email to the account holder to tell them but never got a reply. These accounts are either compromised or abandoned by the original user.

They’re hijacked, often turned into business accounts, and sometimes it’s a dodgy account to start with. Back in 2017 when I noticed this scammer a couple of ‘account holders’ just didn’t want to know when I alerted them.

Same scammer from Germany has a Morgan on with £1 start or BUy now for 8k!
If they didn’t do such low offers they might look more plausible
I wonder if they ever take anyone in?

Look at his ‘other items’.
Normally about 160 cars etc

When the £1 start listings appeared at the weekend I checked his other items - over 4000 of them. How the hell do they manage to list so many items and then keep track of what they're up to? And as many have said, why don't eBay seem to be able to prevent it occurring?

Don't have to keep track- just wait for an incoming email from someone who is duped to try to get them to part with their cash....

Shame, I was very interested in the 27' yacht at £1.

I would have thought Ebay should have photo recognition software so once identified these scam listings couldn’t use the same photo in the next. That would knacker him from just uploading the lot in one go to the next hacked account.
