Yahoo Japan Sued For Scam Auctions

Yahoo Japan Sued For Scam Auctions 04/01/2005 05:04 PM
It's actually somewhat surprising we don't hear more stories like this. Yahoo Japan has an online auction service, and just like every online auction service, some scammers use it to pull the old "sell something you don't have" trick. Of course, the people who are fault are the scammers -- but upset scam victims apparently figured they need to look somewhere else to sue, and the obvious choice is Yahoo Japan. So, despite just being the platform for the auctions, there's now a class action lawsuit against Yahoo Japan because some scammers used the auction site. This is going to be a very difficult case for those suing to prove. It's not Yahoo's fault -- even though the lawsuit claims that Yahoo somehow knew these auctions were fraudulent. This is yet another case where people sue the big company, rather than suing whoever actually broke the law.

Best scam-artist Internet revenge EVAR

Best scam-artist Internet revenge EVAR 05/14/2004 03:27 AM
This is a lovely tale of revenge on a scam-artist: a Powerbook seller on eBay realized that he was being ripped off by an overseas buyer, who had even set up a fake escrow service to handle his phony payment. Instead of blowing it off, the seller sent the crook on a wild goose chase that culminated with him taking delivery of a "P-P-P-Powerbook" made out of keyboard bits glued to an old binder, after paying £350 in customs fees and friends of the seller who'd staked out his mail-drop photographed the whole thing for posterity.
