I already sent an email to this guy. The listing will probably be deleted, since it breaks several rules.

At least he's up front about it, so now we know too - buyer beware, CC fingerings are different from BBb.

Some persistent person seems very skilled at hijacking other sellers.

And did you notice that the poor guy whose signon was hijacked had never sold anything on EbBay. I'll give the hijacker credit for chutspah but bad marks for credibility. The new listing was practically identical to the one that was cancelled.
