Fraudster Sellers Unreleased - check it out

IP violator found - "jaxanim", SAY NO to him!!!! (he opens another eBay id as "supergloop")

It is not the first time people has re-written my step-by-step system to claim it is their own works. You can tell from their listing that they do not provide technical support like I do (I guess they have no technical knowledge besides copying). Secondly, they throw bunch of not related stuff as bonus to make it attractive. BEWARE.

I have been attacked by fraudster sellers from Singapore. I need your support me to fight against them. Please leave POSITIVE feedback. Thanks, delsonu

Questions/Comments from Ebayers:
1. What is fake? fake in what way?
Ans: Sellers claim to sell your 32GB flash drive but the actual capacity of the flash drive is 4GB or less. The worst part is all your data will be corrupted and lost. Your data is priceless.

5. When you say that you explain how to recover the drive, what do you mean? When you recover a drive, does it then have the capacity it should? For instance if I recover my 128GB drive, is it now fully functional and will hold 128GB or does it still hold a fraction of that amount?
Ans: After recover, the flash drive will have the "actual" capacity it should. If actual capacity is 4GB, then it is 4GB; if it is 2GB, then it is 2GB. Without recover your fake flash drive, you most likely run into data corruption. That's costly.

10. Will your solution fix all the problems?
