Hey guys just wanted to give all of you a heads-up. Someone on eBay has stolen my identity. They are going under the user name mikol0024. They are using my name, address, and password - Watch Yourselves! He has already robbed someone on eBay of $4,000.00 and now I am going to have to deal with this crap.

 

link us to the auction so we can track him down.

 

I don't have the auction #. I just got a call from a woman in Ohio that made a payment to mikol0024 on a 4-horse trailer - she did not write down the item #. When things started to look bad, she looked up the phone number on anywho.com for the user she thought she bought the trailer from - Me. She just called me to see if I was really going to ship the trailer. I have no idea how to track the person that is using my name on eBay to scam people. This is very frustrating!!

 

good luck man. hope everything works out.

do you have any idea how they couldve stolen your identity? you fill out any forms online lately?

 

ttt hope everything gets resolved.

 

I have no idea how, maybe just lurking around eBay/hacking. They didn't get credit card info. I canceled them and they looked at my recent transactions and nothing was wrong there. They just got my identity.

 

That sux

Identity theft is the worst thing that can happen to anyone

 

sucks!

 

did u verify your username/password for ebay ?

 

My eBay name was skunk024 which is No longer a registered user. I went to login the other day and it said wrong password or username. I have 100% feedback and the lady said they were using my feedback as-well. Crazy sh*t going on.

 

i get spoof emails all the time supposedly from ebay asking to verify my account or they will close it. sorry to hear they got to you

 

Yeah I got one of those spoof emails to, but I didn't fill it out.

 

this happen to a buddy of mine as well .. ebay cleared his name , they caught on quick to the guy that did it and stoped him .. he had several accounts and was selling rare expensive **** that everyone would want ...at of course prices that were high but unbeatable .... ebay should be able to help you in this... hope every works out !

 

Filed it with the Federal Trade Commission, and plan on doing some more with credit bureaus.
See what happens, but this lady filing it under my name is what sucks. Its going to make my name look bad and I didn't do anything. These ppl should Rot in Hell!!!

yep .. ebay took care of everything ... the guy had stolen 4 other accounts so any actions that guy had taken on my buddies or any of the accounts was not held against the actuall users of the accounts

 

Don't answer any of those stupid E-Mails asking for you to login to ur eBay account..

Hope Everything Gets resolved for you.

 

bump.... this happened to me my ex gave her boyfriend my info (while we were still together) when i left for the airforce and they scammed a bunch of people. they can rot in hell!!!!! i contacted ebay and they took care of it.
good luck bro

 

Contacted ebay and got my name cleared with them. They reactivated my account. The person that was using my account was trying to sell trailers, boats and stuff. I looked at my Account Status & Invoices. The person jacked up Insertion Fees like crazy. The fees were like 20-100 bucks. I was like WTF!Good thing I canceled my credit cards.
