Here's what happened. I came upon a guy who seemed like he was running a scam on Whatnot. So I started bidding.

I bid and won over 150 auctions.

I immediately tried to return the items thinking that this guy would let me do a return if he wasn't a scammer.

He said no.

I immediately escalated to Whatnot in California and they largely ignored me.

Then I started receiving the items. I opened them up and realized they were not what was shown during the auction at all. I immediately wrote a demand letter threatening legal action if the mistake wasn't corrected.

I also sent a litigation hold letter to Whatnot to preserve evidence and a copy of my demand letter letting Whatnot know that I was being defrauded.

Then I found out yesterday that the guy actually running the Whatnot is a convicted felon, specifically for theft, and he's still on probation for it. (Arrested in '22, pled guilty in '23, on probation now). So he's a convicted thief and he's still stealing.

My next escalation is going to be to file a lawsuit and report this to his local probation officer, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, etc.

What a mess.

On the upside I should get like $40,000 in fees out of this.

As they say, one man's fraud is another man's bread.

Can you get attorney’s fees if you’re representing yourself?

You raise an excellent point. But I also know many lawyers in my state and I'm sure we could work something out where they charge me $40k up front for attorneys' fees on this matter, then after the award comes in, and down the road, another matter comes up and maybe they think of me as a consultant.
