COPY OF MY ADS ON FRAUDULENT SITES
Summary: dowoc reported that several of their listings were copied onto multiple fraudulent sites, citing specific examples such as car thumbnails. They express surprise at the lack of protection despite the copyright notice on eBay and mention having spent three days individually modifying their listings.
Hello, I added the text below in a lot of listings. I found my listings copied
and there are surely others. all my listings on these sites end up on one site and when I want to buy an item: I see in the listing PAYMENT PAYPAL - CB - ETC and when you go to the cart: no more PAYPAL payment but only CB. I thought that my items for sale on EBAY were protected by the phrase at the very bottom of the listing: copyright@1995-2026 eBayInc. All rights reserved ?...
I'm surprised that my listings aren't better protected. It's been 3 days that I've been editing my listings one by one.
thanks.
