Scam sellers
What is the best way to get ebay to understand that a seller is scamming or sending out spoofed tracking? The return and appeal process read more like automated responses and tend to get nothing done.

Ordinarily I would suggest contacting eBay via social media direct message, but eBay is shutting down the social media team, apparently.
Since false tracking allows a scam seller to win an "item not received" case, the next step would be to file a "not as described" return on eBay and be prepared to return exactly what you received if the seller provides for return shipping, or ask eBay to step in after three business days if the seller does not refund you or provide return shipping.
In the future, stick to experienced sellers with a long history and avoid new or unproven sellers, or sellers that show warning signs of being a potential scammer: drastic changes in selling behavior or offering deals that are "too good to be true".
