Online auctions aid thieves in masking stolen goods
San Jose, California. A Marin County woman lost 1075 dollars after buying a stolen WinBook laptop on eBay. The piece notes criminals use online auctions to fence up to 350000 dollars in hot goods, with eBay accounting for about 80 percent of U.S. online auctions. Police and investigators say the Internet’s breadth and anonymity facilitate theft recovery and illicit sales. Executives say the issue is minor, while prosecutors and investigators stress vigilance and monitoring across platforms.
