Hello everyone I have just been on ebay to find out that people are selling the accounts for stupid amounts of money, this basically means that real fans who have been waiting for ages for pottermore have missed out on their chance because of people wanting to make money if we all report them to ebay and to as many hp sites as we can they should be made to take the accounts off.
Harry potter is for the fans not for making money out of!!!!!!!
Please feel free to comment with your views on this so I can present my evidence to ebay.

Ugh, I saw this the other day... there's one that currently on something ridiculous like $15,000. Isn't it illegal, anyway? I'm pretty sure it has something to with copyright laws is strange and actually reads the terms and conditions. We should just report them to eBay...
Also, there are people I know on tumblr who are making like ten accounts. Do you think this is fair? I think it's really selfish of them... they ought to give other people a chance
my mum has actually been onto ebay today and got over 10 people taken off for doing this and yes it is completely unfair to those people who are real fans and who have done the quizzes, I woke up 8 on monday morning to do the quiz and those people who are selling them and selling to people who clearly aren't real fans they are just taking peoples places. THIS MAKES ME SO MAD!!!!!!!!!
I have emailed pottermore the copyright site and ebay and all the fan sites to let them know whats happening ebay won't do anything unless loads of people complain thats what they told my mum.
Some Mystical Girl is right - it is frustrating and outrageous, but there is no way this has gone unnoticed. I'm sure the possibility of this happening was even anticipated. JK Rowling knows her true fans well, and has put a stop to things harming her work in the past. Try to look past this for now, continue doing what you can to find the Magic Quill, and enjoy everything else Harry Potter offers
I agree with what your saying and I know they will put a stop to it eventually but I cant sit back and just watch people getting away with it for now, and I dont think anyone else should sit back and just think someone else will deal with it, that isn't the right message to send out maybe its just me and I am just very passionate about what is right and wrong but I believe that true Potter fans sit and wait for the books and films at midnight we go to the premiere and cue in the rain we don't sit on ebay and buy pottermore accounts, I have had some luck with ebay I have had one person been made to take off their item via ebay instructions which is a start. Potter fans will always stand up for what is right not what is easy!!!!!
