![]() ![]() I decided to write this article to assist others in how to find out if they have been cheated. I also reported the sellers other auction that had fraudulent bidding and contacted eBay about the issue.Yes I won the auction at my maximum bid but I should have genuinely won it at $1.00 unless a genuine bidder out bid me, knowing this would have ruined my enjoyment of the item. Not liking to deal with fraudulent practices I contacted the seller to cancel the sale because I suspect fraudulent bidding. I then checked the bidders bid history and in the last 30 days 100% of their bids were on items for that seller and 100% were retracted. I checked some of the sellers other sale items and saw the same bidder had done the same on another auction from this seller. I checked the bidding history of the sale and found that yes several bids were made and then retracted making me the highest bidder. ![]() Looking through my email spam folder I found an email from eBay that the bid had been retracted, something I didn't know you could do. Not thinking anything of it at the time I paid the vendor. ![]() Or so I thought! When I checked my eBay account later on I found that I had won the item at my maximum bid. No big problem, I didn't want to bid any higher on the item so that was that. Yay me! About an hour before the end of the auction I got a notice that I had been out bid. For the majority of the auction I was winning at about $1.00. Visit eBays homepage and login, then click Help & Contact at the top of the screen. So the other day I was bidding on an item on eBay.
