Shill bidding involves the use of secondary user IDs or bidders who have no actual intention to buy to artificially raise the price of an item. This is often done by the seller or someone working with the seller to drive up the price of an auction, making it appear more valuable and potentially attracting legitimate bids from real buyers. It is considered unethical and is usually against the rules of most online auction sites.
