Fraud on ebay

Ok,

If you want to end fraud on ebay, you have to take away the ability to profit from it.

Here's an idea...why not require sellers to keep a deposit with ebay?

I would at least require it for high dollar listings on sellers with little or no feedback.

For established sellers, it could be a % of their average monthly sales (price + S&H).

I know there are a lot things to consider and special/difficult situations would arise, but at least this is a start.

Just like the paypal scams. What good does it do me to steal your paypal account if I can't get any money out?

If you send money, an email should go to the registered address to verify the payment and require that you login through the email to finalize the transaction.

Same if you want to transfer money.

Any changes or withdraws should require confirmation through an email sent to the registered email on file. Even the changing of that email should be confirmed through and email.
