Anyone that visits gun forums has probably seen a multitude of posts about the problems of GB, yet it seems the developers or IT cannot address simple things.

In the past few years it would seem GB has been hacked and old accounts, as well as new, have been popping up.

It is so easy to spot, yet GB cannot seem to get a grip on the fraudsters.

Sellers that have not been active suddenly selling several items BIN

none of the items have the same background.

Description has a number to call or text.

A quick look sold items you will find several items sold via BIN. Many items get relisted and rescammed.

When a new seller shows up there is a link to report the item as being listed somewhere else. Even then the GB menu is not at all intuitive.

What is the quickest means of reporting to stop the nonsense? Buyer issue? seller issues? Please help.

IF GB mods actually read this post, Why not have a direct link on the menu at the bottom "REPORT FRAUD"
