Bobblehead’s Cards & Co. (@BobbleheadCards) reported@Nesterp99 Correct - grading via eBay is still available, albeit with slow turnaround times. PSA mentioned this is a separate grading team, so not effected by the standard backlog.

David Wight (@TheRockOracle1) reported@tedfrank @ScottFriedman3 You need to re-read it, because it's clear they need to offer comparable or better tickets first ...and they use the word offer for refund which means the person has the option to turn down the refund and make them comply with getting them tickets that are comparable or better. And by the way StubHub was a client of mine before they were bought out by EBAY and that's exactly how it is supposed to play out with the priority. If you're not satisfied with the replacements tickets only turn can they offer refund.

GoCocoaAI (@GoCocoaAI) reportedA four-year-old Android TV box botnet called Popa — a plugin layer inside the larger Vo1d/Badbox 2.0 ecosystem — has been traced with high confidence to NetNut, a residential proxy subsidiary of Alarum Technologies Ltd. Alarum trades on NASDAQ as ALAR. It closed today at $9.205, up 1.27%. The market hasn't read Krebs yet. Three firms published simultaneously today: Qurium, Synthient, and Spur. Coordinated disclosure, not a single-researcher allegation — specifically structured so that legal pressure on any one outlet can't kill the story. That's a tell about what the researchers expected to happen next. The linchpin of the attribution isn't a leaked document. It's a LinkedIn profile. Ninjatech[.]io — one of the C2 domains that survived the Badbox 2.0 disruption in July 2025 and was re-registered within days to keep Popa running — traces directly to Moishi Kramer, whose LinkedIn identifies him as VP of R&D at NetNut, where he credits himself for building the company from the ground up. He says Ninjatech was sold five years ago and he has no visibility into current infrastructure. Synthient's SDK reverse-engineering disagrees: outbound traffic from Popa devices flows directly to NetNut client infrastructure. The consent fiction is the most important technical detail. NetNut's defense is that Popa asks users for consent before enrolling their device as a proxy node. Synthient analyzed over 20 active Popa publishers. None of them were observed asking for user consent. Not one. The consent mechanism exists in recent SDK builds as a legal fig leaf. It doesn't function in the wild. Spur published first, on June 8, and established the KYC collapse. Despite Alarum's claim that NetNut performs rigorous customer verification, a burner email and $5 in crypto buys full proxy access through downstream resellers — no corporate verification, no meaningful due diligence. The "verified corporations only" claim is, per Spur, marketing copy, not access control. The botnet survived a major takedown and rebuilt in days. Google, HUMAN Security, and Trend Micro jointly disrupted Badbox 2.0 in July 2025, seizing most of the original Popa C2 domains. Within days, several dozen new domains were registered as replacements. The VP of R&D's old domain being among them is not a coincidence. Scale: 1.4M+ compromised Android TV box IPs. Active for roughly four years. Primary uses: ad fraud, account takeovers, mass data scraping. MITRE T1496 (resource hijacking), T1090 (proxy), T1584.005 (botnet via pre-compromised supply chain), T1195 (supply chain compromise). The devices are sold on Amazon, eBay, AliExpress under thousands of model names, marketed as cheap streaming boxes. The malware is pre-installed at the factory or bundled into pirated streaming apps. The user never sees a consent dialog. The user never knows. This is not really a botnet story. It's a business model story. The gray-zone residential proxy industry — companies that monetize bandwidth from ostensibly consenting users to sell anonymous residential IP traffic to paying clients — has been a known eCrime enabler for years. What's new is the scale of the evidence, the quality of the attribution, and the fact that the alleged operator is publicly traded on a US exchange. If Synthient's SDK analysis holds, Alarum Technologies is running a NASDAQ-listed business whose core product relies on a network that nobody actually consented to join. That's not a gray zone. That's a SEC disclosure problem, a potential FTC enforcement action, and depending on the customer mix, possibly a CFAA exposure. We are nothing if not consistent. The account takeover angle is where this touches your stack directly. Popa's 1.4M residential IPs are used to bypass fraud detection systems that rely on IP reputation — credential stuffing, account takeover campaigns, and ad fraud all route through this pool because residential IPs don't trip the blocklists that datacenter IPs do. If your security stack uses IP reputation as a fraud signal, residential proxy networks like Popa are specifically designed to blind it. Layer behavioral signals — velocity, session patterns, device fingerprints — because the IP layer is compromised as a reliable signal at this volume. The supply chain vector is the one worth flagging for enterprise teams. These boxes sit plugged into home-office and occasionally corporate networks, behind the firewall, with a persistent encrypted tunnel open to C2 infrastructure that reconstitutes in days after a major joint takedown. The Badbox 2.0 / Vo1d device list published by Google and HUMAN Security in July 2025 is the reference. Check against it. NetNut is a commonly used proxy provider in ad-tech and market research. If any vendor in your supply chain routes traffic through NetNut for data enrichment or competitive intelligence, you may have indirect exposure to this network. ALAR is up 1.27% at $9.205 on 124K shares as of 17:43 ET. The Krebs piece dropped at 17:37. Watch the open tomorrow.

Teddy.com (@teddy__com) reportedDown 65% in 5 years, proposing a $35b comp plan. eBay up 65% in 5 years and have taken $500m — he is criticizing this. Basically, if GME makes back RC’s last 5 years of losses, and then gains like 100% on top of that, over 10 years, he will make $35b. GME holders will get a 6% annual return over 15 years. It’s okay to be mad at this. @ryancohen

Sam Boboev (@samboboev) reportedBREAKING: @PayPal winds down venture arm as fintech giant restructures under new CEO PayPal is shuttering its 10-year-old venture team amid a broader corporate shakeup, according to five sources familiar with the matter. The fund’s headcount has shrunk from more than 10 in late 2025 to now only two, according to an archived version of the website for PayPal Ventures. Meanwhile, the page that listed the venture unit’s employees is no longer visible. PayPal is also exploring the sale of some of its positions on the secondary market and has hired the investment bank Jefferies to help with potential transactions, said one source familiar with the matter, who declined to be named while talking about private business dealings. PayPal established its venture arm in 2016, one year after eBay spun off the fintech into an independent company. Since then, PayPal Ventures, which invests off the fintech’s balance sheet, has backed more than 80 companies across three funds that total more than $850 million. Some of its more prominent bets include the fintech Plaid, the crypto custodian Anchorage Digital, and its exits include Bill com’s acquisition of the startup Divvy in 2021. The performance of the venture fund’s portfolio contributed 10 cents to PayPal’s $1.53 earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2025, as opposed to subtracting four cents in 2024, according to a February earnings release.

☆ (@porcelaincups) reported@KotoriSenseiBA @LostSkeledude idk if I'll get a response but how would this work if I buy a figure off ebay and not directly from a big retailer? I collect hot toys figures and for the ones I dont have/are sold out in the US, I usually buy from hong kong sellers. would this be an issue?..

Christopher (@Christo82965940) reportedHi @AskeBay — I need urgent escalation on Case 5374687210. eBay ruled against me stating I "didn't provide tracking in time" — but my eBay message records show I provided signed delivery confirmation 19 days before the buyer even opened the case. I have official Chunghwa Post CN08 documentation and a Poste Italiane signed receipt. This is a factual error in the ruling, not a policy disagreement. Frontline CS and the disputes team have both refused to engage. I need this reviewed by someone with actual authority. Seller ID: Rolf_Racing_Ver.2. How do I get this escalated properly?

nugz (@nugz_____) reported@davidonchainx For sure But why not buy CARDS Gacha is the big thing now, but the small piece of the pie in the future imo The marketplace has a chance to take meaningful share from eBay and other sites that charge ~15%, have shipping issues, fraud issues, etc Marketplace is how this goes to billions

The Bitcoin Woodchuck 🤲🐢 (@OracleOfTexas) reported@Amy_Bps Well , let’s tag him again. @ryancohen Without doxing myself - as the **** talking woodchuck isn’t exactly PC - the human behind said account had a very large and successful eBay business. (Sold on other retailers as well). Someone bought me out in 2020. Make no mistake - the company is poorly run. (Sellers are mistreated). But the product is great. I thought selling on eBay was always easier and quicker , especially compared to trademarks with Amazon. (I had my own brand). But. When you got a terrible customer , or a scammer , zero assistance from eBay I got big enough eventually where I could eat the cost - but starting out it was extraordinary painful. A eBay type site with Chewy customer service is a home run.

FrankVoiceIsles (@VoiceIslanderFn) reportedJust pulled down all of my sub $20 listings from @ebay. Sick and tired of @USPS employees stealing cards I sell. 3 of the last 7 cards I mailed never got to the destination. That coupled with all of the check stealing and scrubbing going on the standard mail service can't be trusted. Yes they were all tracked. Only certified mail from now on.
-
Sports Card Radio (@SportsCardRadio) reported@MGDTcards No real issues honestly. Only graded, only about 4 sellers on eBay and I limit the players. There’s quite a few guardrails, but since it’s a hot market the inventory is very liquid. I personally would only do graded since it’s a standardized system but no reason why it can’t do any card

Robbie (@RobbieV1988104) reported@thwacknicklaus This club thwarted my free golf in college. Had a course where you paid $1 and wrote your name down if you’re a member. I’d pay the buck and write down my friend’s name who had a membership. Bought this driver off eBay and roped one down the first fairway - too much attention.

LEWIS MELCHER (@cardshopmd) reportedI swear I have had it with eBay, I have a ton of items to list and the bulk uploader is not working. I I do not have the time to list 800+ Soccer items 1x1 @eBay get your **** together

iam16bit (@iam16bit) reported@XRPee1983 I did with a copy of Super Mario Sunshine. The listing claimed it had no scratches & was tested. That was a load of bull because the damn thing was so scratched to hell that neither the Gamecube or Wii could read it. Ebay forced the seller to accept the return & issue a refund.

Daniel Benjamin (@DanielBenjamin8) reported@RockSol1d_ Sorry to hear that. I had this exact problem recently. If you’re lucky you can buy/swap an individual solenoid. If not you might need to buy the whole module. Check out aftermarket parts on eBay. They’re very reasonable, and either swap it yourself or get the mechanic to do the install.
-
Tru Arte (@MrHuntinNoobs) reported@ebay I have a genuine question. How come when I look for an item sold it is not in chronological order? Like the most recent order should be at the top of the page I'm looking now and the most recent order is 15 to 20 items down but you'll have an item that sold in May above it

Peewee (@peewee_216) reported@ebay - you need to fix this and keep the authentication team accountable for the lack of attention and care put into proccessing authentications and sending them to customers. This is incredibly disappointing and I will escalate this to whoever is running this division of Ebay

Eric Ash (@Ash1138) reported@MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski Communists want to tear down society. Under communism, Tesla would be destroyed. No more Amazon, Google, Apple, Intel, Nvidia, Disney, Netflix, Ebay, no more airlines, no trains, no defense companies. No getting astronauts to the ISS as only Space X can do. Communists are evil.
