EBAY FRAUD
I Have provided a report earlier on this crime but I was contacted recently by the FBI and referred to IC3. Gov I went on line on ebay and purchased a 2006 Honda Accord hybrid JHMCN36406C003979 placed on sale on e-bay by by a James W. Ellison (rustyell5ynq) paull_ greenoucghh@hotmail.com and paull_gereegiorr@hotmail.com of 8520 Mingo Court, Louisevill, Ky. The sale was confirmed by an individual named Jack Tomson with the email address: ebaymotors@invoice-financial-department.com The seller provided an ebay agent in Germany named Christian Ender, Address: Hauptstr. 16,13158, Berlin Germany. Using Berliner Volksbank Address Reudernalee, 10435 Berlin. BLZ: 10090000 the account number provided is 7245943002. The sum of $10,600.00 was wired on June 14 and was credited to the account on June 15. A trace was placed on the transaction on June 22 and it reported that the account was credited and it is now closed; no indication was made as to who closed the account. I have made contact with the bank but I am yet to receive any information. Contacted the German embassy, German police and several other agencies. My recourse now is to travel to Berlin to garner information on resolving this case. I contacted James Ellison whose name and information was used to place this item on e-bay and he reported that he is not involved with the transaction. E-bay reported that their website was hacked, but they never placed a warning or a flag on this account. I have contacted Better Business Bureau to investigate eBay affairs.
