eBay scams - site says ‘no plans’ to ban ‘active’ listings

Auction site eBay has remained defiant about ‘active’ listings, despite multiple reports indicating that these are being used for eBay scams where users are directed outside the site to pages built for phishing attacks, according to Computer Weekly.
The issue originally came to light last week when a listing, which offered cheap iPhones for sale, was found to contain a malicious script which directed site users outside eBay to a site which resembled the auction site, but harvested usernames and passwords, according to  TameBay.
