Auction Booster

I figured I'd try posting this on here and letting others know about it since AB said they wouldn't really be able to post it since I'd be third party in the whole situation. But I've come across a situation lately that started on one of Jailbird's "your character here" auctions. It first caught my attention when I noticed it was reposted for some reason. Originally the description on it stated something along the lines of, "This auction has been reposted and restarted due to someone boosting bids. Incidentally Priestreven is no longer allowed to bid." I would have screen shot it, but I was originally viewing it on my phone and when I got home from work it was changed. Here is the repost of the auction on FA and as a warning it is NSFW: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8996090/

They have also put a journal up a little while ago before all of this stating about how it's fun to run up auctions and in the comments he starts that if he wins the auction he just doesn't answer back: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3875705/

They also state in their FA profile that, "I am addicted to running up auctions." http://www.furaffinity.net/user/priestrevan/

I'm guessing it has happened with other people, but I haven't seen it myself. As I said I felt others should be aware of this in case he decides to jump into one of their auctions and the same thing happens. That and hopefully this can be spread around as well so if they happen to jump into someone else's auction they can immediately shut them down before it causes too many problems.
