This exact same photo first appeared on eBay when Ashley Carder legitimately sold the
gear that is shown. Fraudulent relistings, stating that the bidder must contact the
"seller" directly at a specific email address, have reappeared about half a
dozen times over the last year or two.

The ironic thing is that the fraudsters go after key "high value high
popularity" items, done solely by a text search.
Thus they wanted to put up fraudulent listings for Plasma Display Panels (PDP's) but
end up using PDP-11's.
I would bet they have absolutely ZERO idea what their fraudulent auction is actually for.
Time for cow-tipping?
