The New York Times’ scathing anti-Donald Trump op-ed, which the paper
attributed to “a senior official in the Trump administration,” has
inspired a parlor game among people trying to figure out the author’s name.

“造謠的定義是知情且蓄意。" 你看,你又在自定义。
真正的定义,字典上就已经有了,
在 merriam webster上 rumor的名词形式是这么定义的“talk or opinion widely
disseminated with no discernible source”,而动词形式(也就是造谣): to
tell or spread by rumor
在汉语中,百度百科是如此定义的。 造谣: 通过个人想象,虚构事实,并通过各种途
径进行虚构信息散布。
以上中英文定义下,你的行为都符合造谣的定义。而你自己给的定义,我无法从任何途
径找到,甚至是台湾的教育部重编国语辞典修订本。在我找到的定义中,造谣只有蓄意
与和事实不符两个特点,并不需要知情。所以,你的所有逻辑,都是基于你自己杜撰的
定义,完全站不住脚。

ebay我比较熟悉.综合了一下你及他人提供的信息,一个基本画面大约如此:
1. occasional seller mr.jkoz, Webster MA based
2. from 3/17~3/29, 他sold 4x iPhone 4S
3. 你同学的ebayid应该是maoeba; 他付了588+20买了, 贪了一点便宜.
极大的可能,seller mr.jkoz是骗子,基于以下非直接证据:
1. 预先准备的托词emails; 第三方打包邮寄
2. 先说Staples打的包; 后说和Staples一起打的包 {算破绽?}
3. occasional ebay seller 在短时间内突然销售了四台iPhone<--很可疑
4. 4个buyers中, 已经有一个指控seller Fraud<--他人印证
