Questions about the 200 Transactions that count towards a 1099 form.

I have kept track of all money deposited into my checking account after every sale. The Money reported on my 1099 is more than double what I have proof of. Why does Ebay report this amount to the IRS when it isn't ture.

Updating information

Why am I getting a notice to update my Ebay information and they are even requesting photo confirmation (which I have no idea how to do). Is this legitimate or is it a scam (potential hacker)?

Scammers! One big complaint.

A few years back I was in a spot and needed some money so I had turned to eBay. At the time, everything worked as should and the buyers/sellers were direct, communicative, and actual people - actually, all I dealt with were really kind. Recently I fo...
