hi .. i get this email :
Your payouts are currently on hold because your eBay payment account is restricted. A U.S. Court has directed eBay to freeze your account. Please reach out to plaintiff’s attorney at enforcement@sherinianlaw..net for more information and to resolve the matter.

eBay did not decide to freeze your account, it was ordered to do so by a judge. Please understand that eBay cannot release this freeze on your payouts until we receive instructions from the plaintiff’s attorney, or we receive a copy of a notice of dismissal or satisfaction of judgment that has been filed with the court. This matter must be resolved with plaintiff’s attorney or defended in court. Plaintiff’s attorney can be contacted at the above email address. An attorney can explain to you how to defend the lawsuit in court.
If you have not heard from plaintiff’s attorney after 5 days, we will be happy to request they respond to you. If you need us to reach out, please contact VeRO@ebay.com.

There is no solution. You were 3rd party drop shipping from the US via Amazon and that is not allowed. You cannot list items on eBay and ship them from another selling site. All your photos are Amazon photos. This is called retail arbitrage and it is a big time no no & policy violation. No doubt your account will not be re instated.
Good luck with future opportunities

Illinois must have ran out of ambulances to chase.

·2 years agoYou need legal representation in the USA to deal with this, unless you are going to try to deal with and agree to a settlement with the lawyer. And pay.
Your listings are still alive, and Ebay will let you sell, but will not pay you.
If you do not followup with the lawyer or the court, you run the risk of losing all of the funds that Ebay is holding.

OP2 years agoi didnt know it's counterfeit and it's listed as unbranded ! .. i dont know what to do .. any help ?
kensgiftshop
·2 years agoJust because you list it as unbranded, doesn't make it right.
As a seller, it's your job to know what you can and can't sell.
If it's being dropshipped from China, you can almost guarantee it's counterfeit.
justsimplestore
OP2 years agowhen i search the problem quoting from the message i find the design ! is the problem !! and how can i know
i just choose the products and i put my own description

·2 years agoIt was probably a chinese knockoff of someone else's design anyway. A large % of these SAD cases seem to have that as the theme.
In this case they apparently didn't even get the original inventor's name correct in their filings for whatever the thing IS as the court documents never tell you that (in a straight forward manner that is).

·2 years agoIn viewing your listings, I can see why you were targeted: You've got a plethora of items that leave you wide open to the lawyers.🙄

I would seek legal council in your country sometime soon.
Good luck to you.

·2 years agoHere's what it means:
Your career as an eBay seller using your CURRENT account are over.
And whatever you do, don't relist the item.
The lawyers are looking for a payday. You have to decide if you have enough funds to pay them off.
Most sellers can't afford to.
Yes...the future is pretty bleak.
justsimplestore
OP2 years agoit's come from nowhere with no warning or previous messages and of course i wont relist it .. any winner product get removed i never relist it ! so what about awful one
can you help me somewhere else
tinsoldierunderground
·2 years agoThey never do come with any warning. These new litigation tactics are known as SAD (schedule a defendant).
Corporations retain attorneys to seek out individuals online who are either selling knock offs of their products or are unauthorized to sell their product. It's a sticky wicket for sure, as noted, the mods will remove any advice given here on how to get around it.

It is your responsibility to KNOW.
"Hello Kitty" "Lego" "five nights at Freddys" ....Just to name a few are all listed as unbranded in your specifics.
YET you still used the brand name in the tittle for those counterfeit items. You are trying to pass off these items as legit. It is illegal.

justsimplestore
OP2 years agomaybe he is the same buyer who bought it .. as it's only one sale for this stupid item
janet9988
·2 years agoIt was a requirement to KNOW what you are selling. Time to pay up.
kensgiftshop
·2 years agoThey like to do that so they have the proof you're selling knockoff's.
