Purchased from hacked account....

The OP is right to be concerned about EBAY hacking as they appear to still have XSS scripting vulnerabilities:

My ebay account was hacked. They put 100 portable wardrobes for sale at £7.99.
My paypal was hacked at the same time too, they set up automatic refunds for ebay disputes or something similar.

Here are a few slightly dodgy looking auctions, potentially hijacked accounts or con artists.

Nike Air Max 90 £25.88

TX3 Mini Android 7.1 Quad Core TV Box £9.65

Ebay is full of auctions like these and in a few days time I expect these auctions will completely vanish without a trace.

Sellers lisa2005thomas and deanosteve. Of course they could be totally legit but at these prices I highly doubt it.

The Nike Air one definitely looks hacked. The seller usually sells clothes and only has feedback of 161. They have sold 96 pairs in two days so some scammer is already up £2500

The TX3 listing has been removed.

Sorry to hear that.
Never understand how it works: how did the hacker withdraw the proceeds? Did he transfer the balance to another account, or update the bank details of your Paypal account?

"sold 96 pairs in two days", so that's 96 people who thought that they were getting Nike trainers for about a quarter of their normal selling price.
Is it really any wonder that scammers make so much money?

Now 141 pairs sold. Have people never heard "if it looks too good to be true" ?

Here's a different seller spadetowner_123 they appear to be selling knock off versions of Nike Air Max for £3.88 delivered. This looks like another hijacked account.
