You found what looks like a great deal on eBay. The price is attractive, the listing looks clean, and the seller seems active. But something feels slightly off maybe the account is newer than you would expect, maybe the feedback is thinner than it should be, or maybe the deal is just a little too good to be true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That instinct is worth acting on. eBay is one of the most popular online marketplaces in the world and one of the most targeted by scammers. About one in three buyers encountered a scam between 2022 and 2024, and in 2026, fraudulent listings are harder to spot than ever, thanks to AI-generated photos, stolen listing images, and accounts built specifically to look legitimate before disappearing after a few transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a seller has given you contact details and something does not add up, you can run their name, phone number, email, or photo through Social Catfish<\/a> for a private identity check before any money changes hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
