heard about ebay scam.

I seen a site where you search for what you want, but this site redirects to Ebay and looks for all the spelling mistakes or simple errors.

The result being that you will be able to bid on items that not many people have been viewing.

The problem is that I no longer have the site address and would like someone to help me out.

It has been discussed previously on MoneySavingExpert.com

I would really appreciate the help.

There is fatfingers.com that finds misspelt items or lastminute-auction.com/uk/ that is for items ending in next hour with one or no bids.HTH

No problem, glad to help. When you have the list of items on screen (they are in blue writing) just hover your mouse over the item you're interested in and it becomes underlined.....then click it.

Er...perhaps I'm being pedantic, but I would hardly describe FatFingers as an eBay "scam"! There's nothing illegal about it!
