The bizarre plot was ignited by complaints from eBay’s top management about the Steiner’s coverage of the company and included sending the couple threatening Twitter messages, live spiders, and a funeral wreath, as well as following them around town and trying to install a tracking device on their car in August 2019. Jim Baugh, eBay’s former head of security who orchestrated the plot and traveled to Natick to surveil the couple, received the stiffest sentence of nearly five years in prison.
What the hell is going on at eBay?
