    recently increased the number of people that are unreliable: bidding at auction and then disappear, compromising the auction. here are some examples of people who made some offers, seemed interested, and then they disappeared.

    my suggestion would be to not allow to bid who is enrolled for less than a year. mostly Indians and people like that are completely unreliable.



    you may take a precautions. serious people are tired of these folks.

    Well, can't you run your auctions that way? If you don't like bidders newer than 1 year, cancel their bids. If you are a biased against one country, cancel their bids. Problem solved.

    Report them. All they need is an infraction for bidding without any purpose of buying!
