An image being shared on social media makes it look as though Ukrainians are logging onto eBay to sell Russian tanks they seized. Used Russian T-72 tank — Fully functional, reads what looks like an eBay listing for a tank. It’s condition is listed as used and it’s priced at $400,000. This post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook .) A reverse image search shows that the photo of the tank pictured with the eBay listing has actually been online for more than a decade. We also found no such used Russian T-72 tank on eBay, though there are plenty of tank toys for sale. Searching more broadly for Russian tanks on eBay we found more toys and one listing that initially appeared to be advertising an actual tank, but clicking on the link revealed that what was actually for sale was a picture of a tank and a Ukrainian flag. We rate this post False.
