    Shouts scam to me.

    I think they're hacked eBay accounts, hence the "don't contact me, email my mate" The actual aBay account holder doesn't probably know anything about it.

    Reported both as they're obviously scams.

    One of those rare and short-lived pleasures - an empty watch list of eBay scam listings. 873 reported so far this month, 873 GONE.

    And for the record, that's 4,764 scams found, reported and removed in the past 226 days (c. 21 per day). I started this in mid-April.

    Collective value of the attempted theft : c. £35 million
