Scammer wasted my time trying to get me to buy a gift card
                 

I listed my genuine aligator shoes for sale and a scammer asked me to contact him on his private txt so when I asked him what his questions were.  He answered if I could include a $400.00 gift card in the box with the shoes.  I told him no and to please only contact me about the sale on the ebay platform to protect me as well as himself.  I didn't contact me anymore and I had to wait 3 days to relist my shoes and this person needs to be stopped before he scams some innocent seller out of $400.00 USD.  How do I proceed to report  this person.  Not only that but the three days some legitimate buyer could've saw the listing and purchesed my shoes.
