How to send spam via eBay’s system

If you’re a spammer, here’s a handy hint on how to send spam via eBay’s contact a member facility: use non-Latin alphabet characters, and send the longest message you can. When the unhappy recipient of your spam tries to report you, the system will reject their report, because *your* message is too long. Even if they elect not to include your message, they still won’t be able to report your spam. Spam it, send it, love it!
