Five new listings just in the last few minutes, all with identical listing format, including buy-it-now available not from the bidding table but within the body of the description, but from 4 different sellers. Using stock photos. Report?

They will try to get you to send funds outside of eBay. Often this involves using hacked accounts of high-feedback sellers, so they look legit.

Sure, you can report it. They will all be gone pretty quickly. These things come and go constantly.
