A » Shill bidding is an unethical practice in auctions where a seller or accomplice places fake bids to artificially inflate the price of an item. This deceptive act is intended to create a false sense of demand and competition, potentially leading unsuspecting bidders to pay more than the item's true value. It is prohibited in many jurisdictions and can undermine trust in auction platforms.
