Hey, good guys DO win sometimes, I got back on ebay quickly and into a "live chat" with ebay manager and informed them that someone had hijacked 'captain_spandex' user ID and possible password and had a total of 8 ficticious auctions going on, and they need to quickly shut them down before people get defrauded. Figured since it was ficticious auctions, might as well have some good old ficticious bids! Some of the people I emailed directly are rich like me: krhoda2 ( 164) US $9,087,765.00 Feb-17-06 20:06:09 PST sitemann ( 258) US $9,087,665.00 Feb-17-06 20:04:25 PST I emailed a number of people directly letting them know it was fake auctions, and so everyone had fun! Scam auction numbers: 4614667988; 4614667989; 4614667987; 4614667991; 4614667995; 4614667994; 4614667993 4614667997; 4614667996 Before ebay started pulling the plug from my "live chat" with them: scam_item_listing ( 6 ) Cancelled: US $13,000.00 Explanation: scam Bid: Feb-17-06 17:57:27 PST Cancelled: Feb-17-06 18:14:00 PST But not before.............................. I WON A AUSTIN HEALEY! eddiestakes ( 1570) US $7,398,504.00 Feb-17-06 20:27:37 PST Can't wait to drop in a 390 in it and chop the top off it and put a Machine scoop on it. This guy was second highest bidder: sitemann ( 258) US $7,398,404.00 Feb-17-06 20:37:16 PST It got hot and heavy once a number of us started emailing each other, I had to get a credit adjustment with ebay to bid more than that $7 million: I quickly captured the auctions before ebay shut them down, and looked like my evil plan worked. You know you can only email ten people directly off ebay before you hit your limit, so I emailed EACH of the HIGH BIDDERS in each auction that had more than 100 feedbacks, as the rookies would not fully understand what was going on, and chances are would not want to bid Trump 'dollars' like below, so if you get your Depends wet at Barrett-Jackson, enjoy these record setting figures below!
