I reported this to ebay yesterday evening as illegal activity (the exact 
crime would be pecunary fraud through misrepresentation of ownership) as 
soon as found out about the listing. I have serious reasons to believe the ip 
block he (Max Sutter) was actioning was hijacked ip block 160.122.0.0/16 
which should really belong to tredcor.co.za / trentyre.co.za

I'll provide more information about him and other hijackkers in about a 
week on this list.

For those who missed, spamhaus has made a copy of that ebay listing, see
