A customer service agent? Wow, they really take these reports seriously.

I gave up reporting to eBay about 15 years ago. I came to the conclusion that they simply do not care as long as they make money. They make just as much on a fake autograph as a real one. Unless someone really knows the autograph, they need to be very careful. I just posted about a dozen Andy Griffith forgeries and secretarial that are on there now. The fakes outnumber of the genuine anymore.

I tried this reporting function a couple of months ago, mostly on baseball autographs. I probably submitted 20 of them over the course of 3 days, all obvious forgeries, and I believe they removed 2.
