Wow, I haven't heard of this happening before.
They just lost themselves out of a great bidder.
I don't understand this. Their security bots are supposed to be built to detect fraudulent activity and eliminate it, correct? Yet they found a great eBay buyer from what I can tell and boot you instead? Then when you inform them of their mistake they won't resind your banning.
That's harsh.
Of course with a free Hotmail account you can just register and start bidding again, so I don't really understand what keeps bidders off that they kick off anyways, aren't they only training the bad guys how to get better at beating the system each time they kick them off, and nailing some of the good guys along the way too like our friend here?
