Brags Sullivan, "If you are a law-enforcement officer, all you have to do is send us a fax with a request for information, and ask about the person behind the seller's identity number, and we will provide you with his name, address, sales history and other details--all without having to produce a court order."
My thoughts on this are: When you get a phone line they ask you how you want the listing and you can pretty much set the listing as anything. What's to stop some scammer from setting up their listing to show as a police department division of some sort and faxing ebay for information to use in scams? This seems like a violation of privacy if there isn't a court order in effect. Of course that's just my opinion.
