Dear owen*and*emma,
Your eBay account has been suspended for a minimum of seven days due to a violation of the eBay Copyright Violation - Unauthorized Item policy. We suspended your account after carefully considering each violation and verifying that the correct action was taken.
Copyright infringement is unlawful and against eBay's policies. Copyright is the protection provided by law to the authors of creative works, such as movies, music, software, photographs and books, both published and unpublished. Copyright owners possess the exclusive right to reproduce the copyrighted work, to distribute copies of the copyrighted work, and to perform or display the copyrighted work publicly.
eBay prohibits the listing of unauthorized copies of copyrighted works. Unauthorized copies include (but are not limited to) backup, pirated, duplicated, or bootlegged copies.
Guideline: If the product you are selling is a copy of another work that you aren't authorized to copy, don't list the item.
Selling unauthorized copies of copyrighted works of this nature is a copyright infringement and is not permitted on eBay.

All of your current listings have been removed from eBay. Any remaining fees that are on your account are due immediately. These fees will be charged using the billing method that you currently have on file.

During your suspension, you also won't be able to do any of the following:
- Bid on items
