And yes, that is my ACTUAL rifle target. 🙂

We know it’s not Windstone’s fault. We;ll kep bidding and hopefully this *person* gets bored and goes away.
Send him/her to my brother in law in Washington. He’s a mortician and has a crematorium…

Well that would solve the border issue 😈

The problem is that people hack into unused ebay accounts. So they use that person’s ebay account info. I have had this happen to me as a seller, in order for someone to attempt a Western Union Scam.
Fortunately for me, I smelled a rat! I reported it to ebay. It is very difficult to track this type of thing, and it is similar to people hacking into credit card accounts or stealing identities.
In fact it is stealing the person’s ebay identity. This kind of stuff happens on myspace also. It is hard to track and hard to stop. Therefore very frustrating!

Yeah, you must be very internet savvy. Many of these people do get away scott free. I have also had my credit card stolen…and used…it is pretty miserable!

I’ve got a nice chest freezer. 😈
Well, now that we’ve got a place to put the chest (heehee)….my grandmother has a big deep freezer for the legs! 😆
Aside from the castle auction, what other auction(s) have fradulant bids?

Too many lately!! I do not remember them allDecember 15, 2007 at 10:39 pm #644197Is there some way to stop people with zero and negative feedback from bidding on official Windstone auctions? I’ve noticed the same person “i***l (0)” keeps throwing out high bids on Windstone auctions. If this is the same person who won and didn’t pay, obviously he or she would not pay again if he or she won, and therefore is just driving up the price for the rest of us. Not that I’m wanting Windstone’s auctions to end low, they deserve a profit too, but I don’t think its fair to have to fight/bid against someone who doesn’t really want the item, when maybe it’s the one special auction you’ve been waiting and saving for.
So far I’ve seen this person bidding on the most recent Barred wing Wolf Female Griffin, Olympia’s Blue Sun Dragon, the Gold Sunset #2 Griffin.
Let’s hope that if this person is fake, that he/she will be stopped! We can tell if there are fraudulent bids raising the prices. As far as I know, until these last two Secret Keeper actions(The Wine Berry one and the Silver one), the hacker has not bid until the final bid. This time were are lots of phony bids by the same hacker. This is getting tedious. Sigh.December 15, 2007 at 11:04 pm #644198I have been wondering about these new names on e-bay is this a new way to hassle people??

December 15, 2007 at 11:26 pm #644200Geez, I certainly hope not. Amongst the forum members alone we can drive up Windstone prices quite nicely. 😀
