Shill bidding is a crime isnt it?
Cant you find something you want to buy, bid on it,. then if you get outbid by what you suspect strongly from the evidence is a shill bidder, contact the police with your evidence?[greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

There are plenty of experiences of people being scammed for hundreds of pounds and despite it clearly being fraud, when reporting it to the police are told to deal with it as a civil matter.0 -
Was watching one of her listings and 'friend' person bid on the item up to £25.
The winner is a 0 profile, feel sorry for her if that's her first taste of ebay!0
