Default EBAY scammers

the problem with Ebay is they do not allow for a more comprehensive review process.
I just called out a seller who had a Jordan Star 101 up for auction, with only 1 picture of the front (no picture of the back!). Huge red flag because the back makes it easy to spot counterfeits. I have no intention of buying a raw Jordan from Ebay, but I do search them once in a while to look at prices and harass scammers.

I emailed the seller told him that it is suspicious to only shows a pic of the front. I ask to see the the back to determine authenticity because these are highly counterfeited. He sends me a pic, immediately backpedaling, saying he that he is a "hockey guy" and does not know basketball and is selling it for a friend.. Another huge red flag. I tell him its a counterfeit, he apologizes, takes it down, and tells me about his 100% positive rating - Red flag #3. As if someone (a guy who sells tons of cards) just posts a card for a friend with no research! Without googling Jordan Star and knowing its a $5k card at worst? Give me a break.

Is there anything that can be done about this nonsense? Shouldn't Ebay add their own negative reviews or penalties for sellers that post counterfeit items? The only way I can post a review is if I buy something - which obviously i am not going to do from these types of sellers. So basically there is no consequence for this seller, and he is still 100% positive.

Can we have a running list on Net54 where we can add scammers? I see posts here and there with names but it would be more powerful if they were compiled in 1 place
