eBay warns of phishing threats
Published March 10th, 2008
eBay has hit out at the lack of interest in cybercrime enforcement in countries such as Romania, China and Russia, warning that not enough is being done to stop fraudsters targeting auction sites.
Mark Lee, trust and safety manager for eBay UK, blamed the fact there was “no fear of real punishment” in the countries and highlighted the particular scale of the problem in Romania.
He said: “These attacks are definitely organised. There are towns in Romania where the entire focus is on sites like eBay as the main source of income.”
