As we all remember quite well, Our Friend & Hero Vladuz hacked the living daylights out of ebay back on 09-25-2007, by posting all those user's details (including credit card numbers, social security numbers, everything down to the date & time they joined ebay) on the "Trust & Safety" forum.

Ebay, of course responded with lies, denials, a cover-up attempt, etc as the usually do when they get caught doing things such as the "Padded Listings Affair" for instance. lmao

I had posted a video of the event to Youtube, which was subsequently pulled, with only the most vague reason as to why given.

Moving on, I have been transferring files out of my machine, & decided to start releasing the unpublished "takes". Why? Because they are there.

Note that this video is edited to blur out the user's details, time expanded in one small segment to show the Vladuz signature a bit better, & watermarks added. Otherwise this is original, uncut.

For more info, screencaps etc, please click on the link up there in the banner area, or scroll down. All the proof you need can be found by following those links, reading, and viewing the various screencaptures etc. I will post a snippet of one here though. Quite telling (if I do say so myself)

To the issue of whether Vladuz was really captured... Well just ask yourself how many times ebaY has been caught red-handed in lies?

falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus

'nuff said.

EBay removes offers of Obama inauguration tickets

Well I see that they are now reporting that those tickets have been removed.
Of course I was already aware of that, as I followed this closely. Look down below for screencaptures and the original URLs of the listings.

I wonder if the video I posted over at youtube had anything to do with that?
Wheeeeeeee?

ebaY Exposed OBAMA INAUGURATION TICKETS Scalped!

Well I see our good friends at ebaY have decided to put this site back on the air again. I thought we had seen the end of this last year after the cool welcome & criticism it received at places like AuctionBytes Blog. It was down over the summer when I checked at the Internet Archives Wayback Machine

Just why anyone would actually revive this horrible ad campaign is beyond me, but it does prove once again the sort of derangement that dysfunctional ebaY suffers from, IMO.

Very interesting squidoo lens regarding our friend Vladuz, from a different point of view:
eBay's Vladuz Man Myth or Monster?

This comes from someone who seems like she was pretty close with him.


We see she confirms many true facts , such as the ability to gain access to ebaY communications within the very sancta santorum of ebaY HQ,
(as referred to here in this post, and this news report) ,
the ability to access the 'back door' administrative functions of ebaY, as seen here, and on and on. lmao.

Of course, ebaY has attempted to bury these events, to minimalize them, to discredit all those whom reported them, yet we all know how ebaY operates. One does not need to look so far to see the ebaY fangs and claws showing these days in  a few different ways.

Shame that Vladuz has disappeared. Oh, there was that little PR stunt, where it was claimed  that Vladuz was captured last April.  That is all that was - PR stunt. I have personal knowledge, and in my expert opinion, they no more caught the "real Vladuz than there is a man-in-the-moon. I have no doubt that the "real Vladuz" got a jolly jump from that news!

For what it's worth, and despite anything else I have learned, I will stick to my opinion, which  I rendered last year after the hilarious and frightningly telling "Vladuz as ebaY Customer Service Rep" episodes.

The essay ends sadly in a way, in that Vladuz apparently decided it was time to disappear... But you never really know... We have seen other Heroes come out of retirement when the time was right.

Lastly, I will add this; It has also been said: "He's a nice boy, he used to cut my grass." ;p

;p
