Hi BOSTON (CBS) – Six former eBay executives and employees are facing federal charges after they allegedly led a cyberstalking campaign against a Natick couple they believed was critical of the company in an online ecommerce newsletter.
U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling said the eBay employees’ harassment included sending the couple “disturbing deliveries” that included a bloody pig mask, a box of live cockroaches, and a funeral wreath. The employees also allegedly sent anonymous threatening messages and traveled to Massachusetts to conduct “covert surveillance” of the victims.
“It was a determined, systematic effort of senior employees of a major company to destroy the lives of a couple in Natick, all because they published content company executives didn’t like,” said Lelling.

what the heck goes through these puke’s minds? “Gee- we’re doing awesome- making boodles and boodles of money- let’s screw it all up, and risk going to prison, by attacking a customer who complained’?
You already KNOW the answer.
Scum in San Jose are ALL like this. Screaming, screeching terrorist TRASH.
They feel they can terrorize anyone to get their way. THAT’s why you hear so much INSANITY out of ThugFornia.
And if anyone thinks the CEO and other upper rank “Execs” at eBay didn’t know about this, I have a lovely red bridge in San Francisco to sell you.
They ALL should be arrested and the victims should get billions in restitution since that company has that kind of cash.
“People were encouraged to knock on the couple’s door, anytime day or night,” said Lelling.
I’ve gotten quite a bit of really cheap, quality name-brand stuff on eBay—and delivered in good condition even though some of it “fell off the back of a truck” I’m sure.
This story just broke this morning.
The pig fetus would probably have been used to imitate a
human fetus. Maybe one of the customers is pro-life.
This would have been used to make a ghoulish, morbid statement, just to disturb that person.
They are as stupid as those execs at Volkswagen
“The couple ordered a pig fetus? Kinda odd-”
“and the pig fetus which was ordered, but after an inquiry by the supplier, thankfully, wasn’t ever sent,” Lelling said.”
It was ordered by an eBay employee but was never sent. Sounds like the supplier contacted the “buyers” who told them they didn’t order it.
Sounds almost like they tried to quit scientology.
Systemic issues across eBay.
Pretty sick attitudes, with behaviors done under corporate approval.
So they are the ones funding Antifa. :^D
I sold hunting and fishing stuff...
It was a good thing...really.
I sold over 150k of stuff....When OBAMA came into being...POTUS...my biz went south.
And I stopped....
This story just broke this morning.
...left eBay after 17 years buying and selling on it because it did nothing...

They don’t advocate against unscrupulous buyers, either.
I have stopped selling in eBay after 20+ years without one negative review. A buyer purchased an antique perfume bottle for 1/3 of its book value. Turned out, she was decanting contents and re-selling milliliters, then reselling the empty bottle for more than the full bottle. She wanted a refund because the stopper was frozen. She never asked and frozen stoppers are usual after 73 years. I paid shipping both ways and was in the red after the entire issue.
Nothing I said mattered. It was a case of making the buyer happy.
I won’t purchase there, either, anymore.

Wow...
So you want to get to the bottom of this? Alright. Here’s some retro FReeper work. Read all of the following quoted from the article.
