4:13 these guys got sued for uh $3 million and and they're they have to pay oh I hope they Su them personally not the company what's that did they sue the company they usually do right I think so yeah but I feel like it should come out of the pockets and they should face Criminal charges because that's all right Joe come on man criminal charges what's going on it's just a little prank man you're I thought you're man of the people's on dude it's funny man come on we had a big old laugh couple bugs couple insects I'm a big uh Underdog and you can keep the GPS I think that the GPS part's the crazy part because that shows how well they had physical access to their belongings that's kind of like so did they have like a eBay like let's say shoe seller go and do the Dirty Work he came up and ████ did the the thing

5:03 like how many people did they have under their P well they were probably like this person's actually ordered from eBay before we have their address they couldn't they couldn't get the shoe seller because it turned out he was a Chinese guy not in America what do you mean you live in Connecticut you don't live in Connecticut which is why eBay sucks it does man it does so the all the employees in question were fired by eBay after the incident one of the guys was um he was the manager of Safety and Security senior dor yeah he was keeping eBay safe and secure I can see like this dude he should get a raise he took his job serious dang man I I didn't know eBay was hurting that bad are they hurting that bad I think they're struggling I'm so curious how they found out who the per the people was cuz like I'd be like where the ████ is this coming from and like I know it's eBay but who in the how they built such a good case that's true it's a really good
