When I pull up the Ebay site I get 2 Naked women pictures listings among the as items. . .

Okay. I don't want to see that. For a couple of days, when I pull up the Ebay site on my computer or cell, among all those promoted ads on the front page, I am getting 2 listings that are clearly adult. Naked women. I haven't clicked on them. Very pornographic.  But, What is Ebay thinking????  I am very much against having that thrown in my face.  My grandsons may be looking over my shoulder or I may be teaching someone about Ebay.  How do I deal with this?

     Simply report the listing as violating eBay's prohibited and restricted items policy.

Someone else here reported this, though - and I don't think it's supposed to be on eBay's splash page.

I don't want to click on those listings. Think of all the ones it will open up. I'll never get rid of them.

Is that what that's called? Splash page? Didn't know that.

All the items I get are "recently searched" items. No naked women though just "recent searches" for diecast cars and such.

All I get are a lot of brown and gray pictures of clothing. No hot nekkid guys for me, I guess.

 

@bill.purvis2012  You're smart not to click into it or you'll be stuck with it until you clear your cache.

Have you checked your "recently viewed" items? Someone may have been doing more than looking over your shoulder.

There is a part of Ebay that does allow Adult items. Maybe it leaked(glitched) onto the main pages.

No. They haven't. Don't know how this is coming up or why Ebay allows sales of these items.

Hi @bill.purvis2012 - usually this happens because eBay is pulling them up as similar items, often because of the category. Some sellers list in the wrong category.

 

Those listings aren't allowed but will stay unless reported or caught.

 

My suggestion is to clear the history on your recently viewed page here: 

https://www.ebay.com/mye/myebay/rvi

 

If the listings are showing on your home page because of a similar (re: category) item you viewed, clearing your history should get rid of the offending ads. Might take a day or so. Looking at new items after you clear your history will help move it along faster.
