: Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Error401 December 07, 2004, 12:55:28 AM I Started this as a new thread, the old one was getting long (And Off Topic, My Fault Mainly)!
Regards Item http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=6135372248&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=6135372248&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT) Anyway, I pulled BenjaminBloods Contact Infor from Ebay to give him a call about the Nice Cheap Triple Auto I won What A Shock User ID: benjaminblood Name: bem blood Company: 22-24 market gardens City: leeds city center County: West Yorkshire Country: United Kingdom Phone: 10977222555 Registered Since: Saturday, 20 Dec, 2003 09:16:27 GMT The Biggest load of Fake Hocum on the planet, Anyway Report Filed with Ebay Investigations, so I figure about 24 hours before they close his account for providing fake contact info, Me Thinks I will go and leave him a little Negative before his account gets pulled! (Don't care if he leaves me one, that account was finished with anyway, I never sell on any account for more than a couple of months, so Retalilaitory Feedbacks don't matter!) Richard : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : hockeyron December 07, 2004, 01:23:43 AM richard,
what in that Ebay contact info sent up "red flags" for you ?? Since I'm in the US the info "looks" okay to me (this from someone not that familiar with UK address's & phone numbers , of course) but just curious as to how you know it's fake ..... and yeh I'm hoping you can nail this guy --- just to bad his feedback is private so we can't all read what's been said about this guy .... : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : sketchqueen December 07, 2004, 01:25:29 AM I'm just really glad my friend retracted his bid - else he could have won this 'item' and been out a lot of $$$.
YAY for this board!! Else I would have been as clueless as the rest of the world :) : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Error401 December 07, 2004, 01:41:38 AM Hi
The Red Flags are 1: Name BEM is not a normal Abreviation 2: Telephone Number, All Uk Numbers Start 0 01 or 02 for Landlines and 07 for Cell 3 Address Also another forum member sent me the address they had for him, which is totally different, and with a bit of digging I now have a genuine Telephone number for him (Not Smart Enough to be ex directory!!") So if anyone has lost out and needs the info contact me for it Cheers Richard : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Nienna December 07, 2004, 02:23:12 AM He just seems to dig himself deeper and deeper into the mire doesn't he? :-\
Good to know that his auction has now finished and *hopefully* his account will be closed and even better that none of you across the Pond got suckered in! ;) We ROCK!! ;D : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Error401 December 07, 2004, 02:24:29 AM Well Mr BenjaminBlood is awake even if not responding to emails
He just left me a negative for NonPayment ;D I reckon 20 hours till his account goes Richard : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Nienna December 07, 2004, 02:28:15 AM Oh well, if you're not bothered about keeping that account of yours going any longer then *pftt* ... who cares!? :P
Soooooooooo childish of him .... ::) : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : rns91294 December 07, 2004, 02:41:30 AM He left a negative already? Don't you have like 7 days before required to send payment? I would write to eBay that you won that auction and the seller left you a negative before you had a chance to even pay. Maybe that will help make them unregister him.

: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : ztaylork December 07, 2004, 03:31:14 AM So get this, I wake up this morning and my "fixed price" listing for 10 Balrog weta statues has ended with one person buying all of them...you guessed it benjaminblood.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2290270617&ssPageName=STRK:MEAFB:IT And he had already left me a negative feedback stating: "waste of time..1st of many...gayboy" http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=ztaylork I am completely confused because I didn't do anything to him. I know my user name "ztaylork" appeared in the auction by samwise18 in the description. Do you think he went after me because of that. I had bid on his auction and that was it. I never sent him an email or retracted my bid or anything. I just stopped bidding. I am copletely confused. I of course reported it to ebay, but will they remove the negative comment. What a way to start off my day. I am stressed out with finals and getting little sleep due to my crazy 8 month old daughter and wake up to this crud. What does everyone make of this. Why did he come after me? ztaylork : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : gimli December 07, 2004, 03:40:19 AM I emailed him out of courtisy to say i was going to contact ebay as he was using a picture of my auction and he resonded by saying he would report me so i have added him to my banned bidder list
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : ztaylork December 07, 2004, 03:42:05 AM I didn't even dream of adding him to my banned bidder list before this (I did first thing after I saw the negative), but I wouldn't have expected him to go after me, as I didn't think I did anything to provoke him.
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : rns91294 December 07, 2004, 03:59:20 AM That is absoultely ridiculous. And not only that, but what he actually said in the feedback. I think eBay will remove this for you, as I have seen ones removed before, I think. But just with the fact of what he said to you should be enough to get him banned!! What is wrong with this guy?
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : ferdinand_the_yak December 07, 2004, 04:49:31 AM That's weird zach... He's screwing things up for you just cos you are linked to us troublemakers by association?
Error401 - I like the retaliatory FB he left for you ::) what are you on about.you freaks are just out to bully me for nothing. Go us ;D ;D ;D : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : blackcat20 December 07, 2004, 04:50:11 AM This guy is getting more and more petty and childish. Whats the point of it all? He really is digging himself a really really deep hole...
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : olly December 07, 2004, 04:57:30 AM Does anyone know for certain that benjaminblood didn't have the card?
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : samwise16 December 07, 2004, 05:03:47 AM ERROR401 u little trooper ;D taken over my tiring job ;)
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : rns91294 December 07, 2004, 05:20:14 AM Good point Olly, we don't really know for sure I don't think. But he already left negative feedback for the winner, without even enough time for payment to go through. It just doesn't seem right.
: Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : olly December 07, 2004, 05:22:53 AM Yes but I was just wondering if the negative feedback was left because of all the posts on here slating the seller.
I wouldn't be happy selling to anyone saying such things. I just wondered if anyone had any concrete proof ??? : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Roz December 07, 2004, 05:35:48 AM lol
Error wasn't on here before the auction ended ;) And of course we have his past behaviour with Hagrids Hut and FTY to go by - did Hagrid's hut get his/her Hermione auto? I think not! : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : olly December 07, 2004, 05:38:02 AM Still nothing to actually prove benjaminblood doesn't have a triple for sale tho ???
And I think Error was on here before ben blood left negative which is what I was refering to. :P : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : Error401 December 07, 2004, 02:50:50 PM Hi,
No concrete proof, but I emailed him three times since the auction ended asking for details of where to send payment, or if possible to collect the card, over a 20 hour period all with no response, and as I said at the start of all this I had every intention of buying the card if he had it! Anyway no response to any of the emails, but as soon as I left him a Neg He responded within 5Mins, so he was getting those emails I am sure of that, And Lets face it as Misty9999 he always managed to take photos of the cards he was selling, to prove he had them, but not on this auction, you would think with all the accusations flying around he would have bent over backwards to provide proof he had the card and clear his name if he did have it + His auction description, "I have all the other Costume and Autos available email for prices and details", Thats just phishing for an off ebay scam lets face it Cheers Richard : Re:Fake Seller Of Triple Auto (Cont) : ferdinand_the_yak December 07, 2004, 05:04:18 PM True, there is no hard evidence, but I wouldn't trust this guy further than I could throw him... I had a bad feeling about him when he offered me that 2nd chance offer with the FOTR Elrond and when I got all the mixed messages from all the other 'winners' it just confirmed my beliefs. Hagrid's Hut is proof that Benjaminblood is a fraud and I doubt that he has a triple auto any more than he had a Hermione auto or 6 FOTR Elronds...
True Olly, he may have that triple, but is anyone willing to buy from him? Didn't think so ;) |
