Same scammers as "Computer course on Paypal"?

Are these listings from the same person/scammer as noted in the "Computer course on Paypal thread"?

How do you get these listing removed before anyone gets scammed?

    Yes its a complete scam. You will need to look at the bottom of each listing for the 'Report this Item' link

    Look how he has received his 10 feedback

    Definitely dodge... although this one hasn't made the early listings private.

    Totally the same guy, the feedback is from at least one of the same accounts as the last one had.

    I wonder if ebay purposefully didn't shut down all accounts in case they led them to further ones? Surely not that sophisticated...?

    Can you bid a million pounds for something to really screw up the auction or is that not allowed?

    Not allowed... and also you run the risk of some innocent taking the 2nd chance offer.

    The last guy got NARU pretty quickly, I've reported this one, although with a slightly different method. (Reported the last one for shilling, gave all the IDs that had left him feedback)

    If anyone wants to report him for Trading while Suspended, that'd be great.

    Hes still listing stuff, might have to list all the listing numbers for members to report using copy and paste, unless we can just report the Ebay member.

    TV listings

    110213598807, 110213598966, 110213599276, 110213599438, 110213603887, 110213604215, 110213604406

    I have reported the listings for using an unsafe payment method, might help to get listings pulled.
