Fraud

I am trying to report what i think is a fraud, but everytime i try, it keeps asking for "

Please provide the correct information in the highlighted fields.

Please enter a valid item number for a listing that has not ended."

this has always been the same when i try to report fraud, its as if e-bay dont want you to report it, the numbers are correct in the field, but same message evertime.

that's a known glitch

you will be able to report if you use a different browser

but why do you think it is fraudulent?

fraudulent listings don't tend to ask for cash on collection!

Well I've checked the item, why do you suspect fraud?

The seller has sold some high value items in the past few days from opening a new account, is this what is causing suspicion? Do you have evidence these items have not been collected / posted.

There is no feedback as most probably the items have not been received yet.

One can report an item and usually not a seller, unless you have been in direct transaction with someone, who has defrauded you personally, and if a case opened in the Resolution centre did not resolve the matter.

the only 'evidence' of possible fraud is the fact the seller says in the body of the listing that they will take a specified sum for cash on collection - meaning they could/might do an off eBay deal thereby defrauding eBay of their fees.

Normally it is a fake or not their address, and waiting robbers waiting to rob your cash, and it is normally when offer is too good to be true, keep your eyes open and stay safe, always pay by Paypal.

Thankyou to everyone, I have only just found out today that it is down to Windows Explorer, and I have just used Chrome, and that worked.

Well it may be a Glitch, but if it is a live listing, when using the REPORT link, it is not necessary to enter an Item Number because it is already on the Report Page.

it is a glitch, using certain browsers you get this when you try to report an item using the report link
