I have just received feedback from a buyer that won 3 auctions from me last week. Somehow, they were able to leave 9, yes I said 9, feedback comments! The first 3 listed are the correct 3 item numbers. The next 3 all have the same item number, 42, and the last 3 all have the same item number, 17041952.
Anyone else notice anything odd in their feedback profile today?

I had this sort of thing once before when eBay was trying to resolve the problem of people being unable to leave feedback.

Well, if you are concerned about it, I accidentally discovered a way to get it removed. Put a response with a web URL in it.... I did this once with a neg I got from a guy over a shipping issue (he didn't pay it to me, but paid it to BidPay in error instead). I put it both on my neg to him and his neg to me. Ebay came back and removed it from both and niether of us could post a feedback against the other to replace it. I have a feeling you'd get into trouble if you did it on a regular basis, but once, or infrequently enough for the eBay staff not to remember the last time, might work. Obviously it's against the rules and all, so it's probably not ethical to do it... but it is an option.

I don't really care. I think it would be silly to request the 6 extra positive feedback comments be removed. I can see the customer support reps eyes rolling now. LOL! I half expected it to just disappear but it's still there today. My Feedback 1 - 25 of XXXX is also off by 2, according to my overall profile makeup. I don't know if I've ever seen that before either. I had a buyer email this morning to tell me about it, she said it looked suspicious, like it had been hacked, and then asked did I do it. Geez!
