Sorry to make a somewhat redundant thread, but I want to make sure it comes up in search results. Here is the original thread: http://www.rolexforums.com/showthrea...79#post3024179

here is the new scam they're attempting:
http://myworld.ebay.com/michaelopticwatches

And sure enough, here is their ID history:

michaelopticwatches Jan-26-12 Present
prestige-watch Jan-23-12 Jan-26-12
michaelopticwatches Feb-24-06 Jan-23-12

pretty clear cut, if you ask me.

Thanks for the heads up Greg!

you only need to take a look at the feedback - 4580charles with a convenient feedback score of 1, which is from this douche. also, why would you privatise a listing to the follow up a feedback comment with "Thank you IWC INGENIEUR AMG purchased. Hope we do business again." - complete bull, good scout

Well - in 2006 that may have been a genuine feedback. These guys take existing accounts over.

Boom. Got him!

He still has a Panerai for sale, no?

Mosco · 27 January 2012, 08:30 AM

Yep, re-listed it for the 3rd time

mastermixer · 27 January 2012, 08:38 AM

How do they take over these accounts, cant ebay make them confirm their bank account info and such I don't understand how they don't suspend the account.

cyglee · 27 January 2012, 08:55 AM

Kudos to our own watch Columbo... nice work Greg.

Mosco · 27 January 2012, 08:57 AM

It's a big scheme, they have people inside ebay, sadly.

Mosco · 27 January 2012, 11:35 AM

And another one...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Panerai-PAM-...item1e6a8fb75e

cajunron · 27 January 2012, 12:38 PM

reported the fake Panerai on 1/26 @ 9:37p.m. Greg.

mastermixer · 27 January 2012, 02:23 PM

Now that same IWC is listed, this is pretty pathetic on Ebays part.

Mosco · 27 January 2012, 04:13 PM

and now the Panerai again:

Reported the Panerai, for what it's worth, Greg..........

I got stung big time on a hacked account on ebay last year. Guy just disappeared. I am now really wary of buying there.
