Attention eBay Scammers:

Rule #1: If you are going to try and scam people with stolen scans, do not use perhaps the most famous scan in the hobby.

Hey I live not too far from Howell. Maybe I should ask to meet up and take a look at the cards. Just to see what the response is!

These kinds of things could also make a good Net54 scavenger hunt. See who can find the source of all scans the quickest.

Hee.

eBay is starting to do some good things.

They are killing the Private Feedback as well.

Hello - I realized two of the cards were my very own and called/emailed eBay PowerSeller support to cancel the auction.

eBay Response:

Dear Mark,

Thank you for writing eBay in regard to reporting a listing.

We developed our Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) program to address the
unauthorized sale of intellectual property over eBay. As you know,
eBay
does not buy or sell any items; we act only as a venue that enables
others to do so. As such, we neither see nor inspect any items that
are
offered for sale on the site. However, recognizing that some posted
items may infringe certain intellectual property rights, we have set up
specific procedures which enable verified rights owners to identify and
request removal of allegedly infringing listings. These procedures are
intended to substantially comply with the requirements of the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. section 512.

You may review the Digital Millennium Copyright Act at:

http://www.qlinks.net/comdocs/uscopyright.htm

We encourage you to join our VeRO program so you can immediately take
advantage of its benefits, which include:

- Direct access to an identified customer support group dedicated to
servicing the requests of VeRO program participants;

- Ability to report listings in which your intellectual property or
other proprietary materials are offered, reproduced, or otherwise used
in a manner that violates or threatens to violate your rights, and to
have such listings terminated;

- Dedicated priority email queues for reporting alleged infringements;

- Ability to create an eBay "About Me" page containing information you
wish to convey to eBay users;

- Ability to request detailed contact information pertaining to sellers
who post any listing that may violate your rights.

We expect the list of benefits to grow in the future, and we will keep
you apprised of any enhancements to the Program.

For your convenience, you can download a copy of our Notice of Claimed
Infringement (NOCI) form by clicking this link:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/NOCI1.pdf

You will need Adobe® Acrobat Reader to view and print our NOCI form. If
you do not have Adobe® Acrobat Reader, you can download a free copy at
Adobe's web site:

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html

Please provide the necessary information, sign the form, then fax it to
us at: (408) 516-8811.

After we receive your first faxed NOCI, we will send you an electronic
version of our NOCI form so you can send future notices to us via
email.

Remember, time is of the essence because items are listed for a limited
duration. Once we have received your Notice of Claimed Infringement in
proper form, we can remove each referenced listing. Be sure to
identify
each specific listing by number as the seller's screen name or user
I.D.
is not sufficient.

If you have questions, please write to us at:

vero@ebay.com

We look forward to receiving from you a completed VeRO Program Notice
of
Claimed Infringement and to working with you in the future.

Thank you for using eBay for your online trading needs.

Sincerely,

eBay Customer Support
