I went to Security Center and clicked on the choice for Account Fraud. I described what happened and included my username (I did *not* include my password). It might have helped that I had no legitimate auction listings, so it was easy to determine which were valid and which were fraudulent. They were all fraudulent.
However, today I've now received two automated messages from eBay telling me that my listings are being taken down for Vero violations. That there are no listings seems to be meaningless. And as far as I could tell, the fraudulent listings were for legitimate boxed sets of TV episodes, so I can't figure out what they think were in violation. Craig.

Just so we know, in case this happens to someone else, how did you get them to pay attention to you. What form of contact did you use... or specific technique in the Security Center... to get their attention?
