    Reporting does absolutely nothing. I've reported 3 different sellers for having their Phone number listed in every listing. 2 by putting a picture of their phone number on a card in the main picture. 1 has it plastered on their store banner and there is a video with the guy standing in front of a sign with the phone number. AI says the listing is not in violation. I uploaded screenshots and everything.

    @scbj1909 ,

     

    The previous replies are correct depending on if you use the App or login manually.  

     

    However, reporting a suspect listing will likely do no good. Reports are looked at by A.I. now, so If an items title, photos and description match it will not find a problem. The A.I. system is more geared to look for sellers using in appropriate payment methods or taking transactions off ebay.  Even if discrepancies are found, 1 report may not be enough for them to pull it. It would take several reports from different members for that to happen. 

     

    If your gut tells you there's something wrong with a listing, listen to it.

     so you need to open an ebay app.

    Go find that listing

    top right corner has  three dots lined up vertically

    click that and goto "help & Report"

    Submit a report

    then describe the issue 😃

    Their profile isn't available.

    It would be the ? bottom right of the listing, that you are to click to report a listing.
