I wrote to them as they operated the account in the name of Gail Taylor. It looks like this account was already under investigation and the inference is that it is being or will be shut down. They confirm there is no money in it. Not bloody surprising!
Barclays Fraud department said they were suprised the Police are not interested. So I have asked them to tell me who I go to. I'll update with their reply soon.

Fraudster: dannycane06@yahoo.com
Fraudster details
His e-mail address is in name of Danny Cane but EBAY tell me his registered name is Danny Eastwood from York. However his phone number is from Dorset. His details, when I was bidding said he lived in Northolt, Middlesex.
The money went to Gail Taylor who banks with Barclays at their Tumbridge Wells branch.
Anyone recognise these people?

Ebay victims
The first time I ever used ebay was this year. I bid for some Take That tickets for my wife's birthday and won the bid at £200 in July 2007. The seller came under the name dannycane06@yahoo .com contacted me when I was away in France and insisted I send the money to a Barclays account in a woman's name, Gail Taylor. I wired the money and the confirmed receipt.
In November I emailed Danny three times abut when I would receive the tickets. No reply. The concert was not until 8th December but as of today, no tickets have arrived and no contact from the seller.
So I contact ebay. This gets really hysterical as they have a 60 day from date of transaction policy which basically means they do not get involved after this time has elapsed. I contacted the Police but they do not investigate ebbay fraud. I contacted my bank whose somewhat mysterious fraud tea are looking into the bank transaction.
But basically, I've been screwed and there is nothing I can do about it.
Except tell the world and hope you send me your ebay stories. The more we collect the more we can build a case vagainst ebay who cleafrly know what is going on and so are both guilty of negligence and failing in their basic duty of care. Remember they get rich out of our loss whatever.
So please, get in touch,share your stories and help the victims fight back.
