How to detect fake:

Bidders on eBay

Have you ever bid on an eBay item and wondered if the auction had a shill bidder to drive the price up? Most people have! Below are a few steps to determine if the item you're bidding on has a fake bidder.

First, click on the items bid history.

Next, click on the bidder that is in question.

Next, look at the "30-Day Summary". If you see the Bid activity at 100%, like the one above, it's likely a fake bidder.

The reason is, if it's 100%, that bidder has only bid on items with that seller. This would indicate that the bidder is associated with the seller.
