ajcabinsandequipment joined eBay September 2024. This listing was first made November 25, 2024. It has been revised at least 9 times since then. Do revisions say anything at all about whether something is legit? I sure hope not. I do it all the time.<\/p>\n

Some of the other ajcabinsandequipment eBay listings have image issues. When you click to see the photos bigger, they are actually smaller. It looks like the photos uploaded to eBay are only 300 pixels wide.<\/p>\n
Sometimes this means the photos were taken from someone else’s site. In this case, I did not find them somewhere else.<\/p>\n

ajcabins.com<\/a> at first opened to a page partly in Swedish. There is a drop box at the top of the page to translate to EN, but why is Swedish even an option? The site is generated by Wix.com Website Builder. Every time I clicked a link, it went back to Swedish.<\/p>\n
The About page: https:\/\/www.ajcabins.com\/about-4<\/a> says<\/p>\n

Wix website builder has template sites that you personalize with your own content to make a website. It is very easy to accidentally leave some of the words that come with the template there. It can also be very hard to find where to turn off certain features, like the language dropdown. This does not mean the site is a scam. It usually means the site was built by a business owner or their friend, family or employee with limited time and experience. Wix is pretty easy, but it still takes more time and attention than you might think.<\/p>\n

Facebook Group Tiny Home \/ Shed Home and Cabins post<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n A J Cabins on Facebook<\/h2>\n
I used Google image search to look up the photos. The earliest version Google found was on Facebook. On Nov 30, 2024 and Dec 20, 2024 it was posted in the Tiny Home \/ Shed Home and Cabins group by Aleesah James. Her profile says she is the CEO at AJ Cabins & Garages March 10, 2025 to present. AJ = Aleesah James?<\/p>\n
She doesn’t have a business page, but she posts to different groups; Aleesah James posts to Facebook Groups<\/a><\/p>\n
The posts say the cabins are in Northern Cambria, Pennsylvania. The phone number (347) 237-6759 looks like a New York City area code. Her public personal Facebook page says New York, New York is her hometown. So maybe she kept her phone number? Or she is remote?<\/p>\n
UPDATE:<\/strong> The posts now have a new phone number (814) 208-4251. This is a legit phone number for Pennsylvania.<\/em><\/p>\n
Aleesah James Facebook page has recent check-ins from:<\/p>\n
\n
- San Juan, Puerto Rico<\/li>\n
- Incheon, South Korea<\/li>\n
- Jakarta, Indonesia<\/li>\n
- Genting Highlands, Bentong<\/li>\n
- Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia<\/li>\n
- Clearfield, Pennsylvania<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Traveling doesn’t mean you are a scammer.<\/p>\n
If you search AJ Cabins & Garages LLC, you find Facebook posts from Carlos Chamorro about the same cabins. They link to the same website.\u00a0 Carlos Chamorro – AJ Cabins & Garages LLC<\/a> His personal Facebook page doesn’t really share anything at all.<\/p>\n
In investment groups, Aleesah James says, “I\u2019m the owner of AJ Cabins & Garages. I\u2019m looking for investors that are looking to make a return of 12% of profit sales…”\u00a0 Carlos Chamorro says “We build cabins, custom saunas, garages & do commercial work! Our business: AJ Cabins & Garages LLC Send us a message to contact us.”<\/p>\n
What is a CEO?<\/strong><\/p>\n
CEO stands for chief executive officer. It is the highest-ranking person in a company or other institution, ultimately responsible for making managerial decisions.<\/p>\n
A CEO is not necessarily the owner of a company; the CEO is typically an employee hired to manage the company. The owner has a financial stake and may or may not be involved in the day-to-day operations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
People in small businesses throw a lot of business words around without holding to the more specific meaning. Aleesah James as the CEO and owner at AJ Cabins & Garages does not mean fraud.<\/p>\n
eBay Modular & Prefabricated Buildings Cabins Category icon looks like it is made from this photo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n A J Cabins Google Image Search<\/h2>\n
I used Google Image Search to see if the same cabin was shown anywhere else. These cabins are distinctive looking and I did not find that the photos were stolen from someone else’s website.<\/p>\n
Oddly, it looks like this was the source for the icon eBay added for Modular & Prefabricated Buildings > Cabins.<\/p>\n
