eBay ID's are being hijacked and used to post bogus ticket auctions.  When considering game, concert, or other event tickets on eBay, please be careful of auctions that direct you to an email address instead of direct bidding.  These auctions usually list another country as the place of origin - and most lately United Kingdom is showing up often.  The owner of the email address is using a hijacked eBay ID to place the auction.  Bogus auctions many times start at $19.00 and usually have highlighted or special features.  In the body of the auction they ask you to contact them directly at the email address listed.  The problem is that the owner of the eBay account associated with the auction has no connection with the email address listed.  They even may list a very reasonable "buy-it-now" price (but never a buy-it-now button), but only if you contact them directly through the email.  They then try and get you to wire transfer the money for the tickets, and of course if you do, your money is gone forever.  They also use a bogus "Square Trade" or "eBay" invoice - it looks real - but it's not.  The best thing to do is report these types of auctions to eBay and ask the "seller" (owner of the ID) if the auction is legit - through the "ask seller a question" link.  As of this moment - email addresses to avoid are "homeworkvl at yahoo dot com" and "peteradria at gmail dot com" (eBay wouldn't let me write the direct links here) both of which I have proven to be used by people hijacking eBay ID's and posting fraudulent ticket auctions.  My suggestion?  Send them bogus emails of your own - tie up their addresses so they can't scam others.
