Girl Sold on Ebay
KOBLENZ, Germany - A German mother and her boyfriend are
being investigated for trying to sell the woman's young
daughter on the eBay Internet auction site. Three bidders,
who allegedly pushed the top offer for the 8-year-old girl
up to 25.50 euros ($30.35) are also under investigation for
attempted human trafficking, German news agency DPA reports.
The 41-year-old mother and her 35-year-old boyfriend live in
the western German city of Koblenz and are the subject of an
investigation by the Koblenz police. They allegedly posted a
picture of the girl to eBay's German-language auction site
with a starting price of one euro ($1.19) and a description
saying, "you can play with her." It is not clear whether the
Internet auction posting was intended to be a joke or was a
serious offer to sell the girl as a "real working toy," as
she was advertised.
