Yep, the scammers have been keeping me busy. I finally resorted to pulling the pictures (I usually try and leave pictures up until I am sure the buyer has no more use for them) but I fear that they have been copied so many times that they will be floating around in cyberspace forever.

What puzzled me is that the "sellers" have had good feedback. I think that their IDs have been compromised, and the scammers have hijacked their IDs for fraudulent auctions. The latest attempt to hijack my eBay password was a genuine looking eBay e-mail I received yesterday offering me a chance to win a vehicle during eBay's 10th anniversary giveaway. A click on the link takes you to a pseudo-eBay login screen. A check of the site address made it clear that it was not an official eBay site. If I were to fill in my ID and password, I'm sure I would end up being the victim of ID theft. Please, be very careful and wary of any curious eBay e-mails!
