(Did request a creed pic) other listings interesting too
It's not a Coach. The seller doesn't mention Coach at all in her listing so I don't think she can be accused of keyword spamming, although all the other words in her title are usually associated with Coach.

ETA: the second photo is of a different bag than the first. That one looks like a Coach. I wonder who she stole that from.

Here's another of her listings,
she says it is LEATHER, even in her detailed description...DUH!

and in what way, shape or form is this KATE SPADE??
Definitely she is doing tons of key word spamming on all of here listings, using any and all
words that might draw you in.
Needs to be reported big time.
 
So I messaged them that it was fake, am I supposed to report it too?
Honestly, I don't think it is good idea to message sellers, telling them they have a fake. Some get very angry. You aren't supposed to contact a seller unless you are interested in buying it. You can get reported for harassment and get kicked off ebay.

Report it. It is the seller's responsibility to determine authenticity before listing. If they aren't going to make the effort, they should suffer the consequences.

There are few sellers I know from tpf that I would warn, but everyone else gets reported. I learned my lesson after receiving very nasty messages from a seller I tried to warn. When his listing got removed, he blamed me. It was a little scary. In an unrelated incident, an angry seller bought (without paying) one of my items just to leave negative feedback.
