Account emporarily restricted
So I just made a ebay account because I wished to sell some digital asset in a video game that i no longer have time for and a few moments later I get a mail informing me that my account was restricted from selling items.
"We wanted to let you know that you have been temporarily restricted from selling and buying on eBay because of concerns about your seller account. This must be frustrating, but measures like these help keep our marketplace safe for everyone.
Here’s what you should do
Please get in touch as soon as you can by going to the Help & Contact page below and selecting Contact Us. We’ll just need to ask you a few questions to verify your account so you can get back up and running again. If we don’t hear from you within 7 days, your account may be at risk of being suspended."
I clicked on the Help & Contact link but its a back and forth from that and the original mail.
I can't get in to contact with anyone just some cheep AI

You don't own the rights to those items, as they are copyrighted. Copyright infringement is a serious policy violation. Just because others are doing it, doesn't mean its right or allowed. They just haven't been caught...yet. eBay is starting to get a handle on virtual stealing especially with international sellers, as my guess is those companies have brought it to their attention + adding serious consequences if it continues on this site. Most like this account you just created will be suspended as well. Sorry.
Wishing you good luck with other career opportunities.

That listing no longer exists. Like I said....they get caught eventually and if you reported it...good for you. Do the right thing.

I do wish ebay would make it easier to get to CS. Good luck

·2 years agoBefore beginning to list and sell on eBay, every potential seller needs to read all about what can be sold here and what cannot.
It's my understanding that there are at least some digital items which cannot be sold on eBay.
