AUCTION OR EBAY FRAUD CHARGES
Online auction or eBay fraud may exist in various forms. The simplest of which is when an individual orders or bids on an item online, makes the payment, and then receives nothing in the mail. Alternatively, auction or eBay fraud may take the form of misleading descriptions, deliberate sale of defective merchandise, or sometimes even the sale of stolen merchandise. These online auction or eBay fraud schemes may also qualify as mail fraud if the mail is being used at any point in the scheme. This includes a request that a money order be sent to pay for non-existent or undelivered auction merchandise. If convicted of auction or eBay fraud you may be facing large fines and/or imprisonment.
