Default Ebay Fraudulent gto listings

There are currently 2 fraudulent listings on ebay , notice that they say" not a registered user " and the scammers are registered as of yesterday . Besides there are many other tell tale signs too.

Like a Cherry 66 goat for only 8000 dollars..lol people suck! i jumped on ebay motors last night and someone hijacked a ebay user's account and put up like 20 auctions for "A FREE NIGHT WITH A PORN STAR". so i click on it because its only 10 bucks :) and it quickly redirects me to a bogus ebay sign in page.

About a week and a half ago someone hijacked or was trying to hijack my account. When I looked at my ebay, it showed I had 20 auctions scheduled, which I never do. Every one of them was a rare car with cheap buy it now, etc, etc and etc. Had to change a bunch of stuff and of course with no give a *hit help from ebay. They plain and simple do not care.

What I don't understand are all of the "test listings" popping up under the GTOs with no pictures. I've never clicked on one, but I assume they area scam too.
