hunter,
I agree that eBay should allow bidders ID's to be shown.
Back in the old days, I used to e mail people about scams all the time. Some took my advice and stopped bidding, others didn't and got taken. A few e mailed me back and told me to mind my own business. I took that as a person shill bidding his own auctions wanting me to butt out so he could rip people off in peace.
A month ago, I got lucky and saw that a person who had won a fake 1915 Cracker Jack Walter Johnson for $225 dollars had their ID in full view. So, I e mailed them and told them their card was fake and pointed them to THIS forum. After a few days, the buyer e mailed back and thanked me for the heads up. A few weeks later, the buyer e mailed me again and told me he had filed a claim with eBay and PayPal and he had gotten his money back.
So far, the seller (goodfind4u) has not listed anything to sell since then.
