I suggest setting up an account with Esnipe as well (
www.esnipe.com). Then you don't even have to manually bid. Esnipe will bid for you. Just enter the item number, highest bid (pick a huge $$$) That way these scammers can't cancel your bids, because Esnipe will outbid any bidders in the last few seconds of the auction.
If it was me doing this, which I am not btw, I would also be doing this all through an anonymous proxy server, and using bogus names, addresses and phone number.
I do not condone any of the above, as it is probably not exactly legal and rather nasty. However sometimes the ends justify the means.
