So you are saying the seller's account doesn't get cancelled as
I described, and it is just that a particular auction that was
removed due to fradulent bidding?
We are also wandering off topic...

Apparently that is what happens when the seller is no longer an
eBay member, for whatever reason. Presumably the seller cancelled
his eBay membership (or possibly was banned)?
I thought it was that the buyers were using stolen names.
It would seem that a lot of people are using these names
that they have phished for and bidding items up. A single
person may have two names that they are using to bid the
items up.
This seems to be happening not only for computer items but
also for old radios.
One fellow in the radio group has attempted to sell the same
item 3 times and each time someone bid phoney bids. Causing
the auction to be canceled.
