Questionable Ebay auctions

There is obviously something suspicious going on in these two (and maybe more) HVX200 auctions - but what? Hijacked accounts?
The two auctions are identical but one seller is in Austria and one in US.

Ebay is usually on top of this stuff so they may be gone before long.
 
The first listing has already been pulled. The second one has been reported (I did, but I'm sure I'm not the only one).
 
I've been seeing more and more of this in the last month or so, especially regarding P2 cards. I've reported at least a half a dozen auctions for HVX units or P2 cards in recent times...
 
So the seller of the second item says the camera is located in London, and he wants 700 pounds for it. Yet the actual "Foto Schneider" store is located in Austria.

Also, according to this page, the e-mail address that one is supposed to contact the seller at has been used repeatedly to hijack eBay accounts.
