A jealous British husband who accused his wife of having an affair with a workmate took the ultimate online revenge -- by placing her for sale on eBay.

BEIJING, May 16 (Xinhuanet) -- A jealous British husband who accused his wife of having an affair with a workmate took the ultimate online revenge -- by placing her for sale on eBay.

Paul Osborn, 44, evicted his wife of 24 years, Sharon, from their marital home, then advertised her on the internet site for sale, The Sun reported Thursday.

"I started checking her emails and I realized the rumors were true," he said. "They had been discussing their sex life together and making plans for the future. I was absolutely destroyed. I gathered all her stuff in bags and dumped it in the drive."

Osborn told The Sun he initially agreed to take his wife back but decided more drastic measures were needed after he again became suspicious. He created an eBay auction offering his "cheating, lying, adulterous slag of a wife" to the highest bidder. Bids reached more than 1 million U.S. dollars.

Sharon Osborn denies cheating on her husband and has filed a police complaint against him for harassment, the newspaper report said.

Three weeks ago, Sharon pleaded for Paul to take her back. She moved back in, but two weeks later, Paul was again convinced she was cheating.

Paul said: "In a fit of rage I put the advert on eBay. I later took it off because I realised it wasn't the right thing to do. I was just so angry."

But Sharon had already made a complaint to police who today confirmed they were investigating, saying: "Statements have been taken from two people."

北京，5月16（新華網）--一個妒火焚心的英國丈夫曾起訴他的妻子跟一個同事有染，他采取了終極的網上報復--將妻子發到易趣網上出售。

保羅奧斯伯恩，44歲， 將他24歲的妻子莎朗逐出他們的婚姻生活，然后在網站上登出廣告出售她，太陽報于周二報道。

“我開始查看她的電子郵件并且意識到留言是真的，”他說，“他們一直一起討論他們的性生活并且為將來做打算。這徹底毀了我，我把她所有的東西都裝到袋子里然后傾倒在街上。”

奧斯伯恩告訴太陽報，他起先同意接納他的妻子，但是在他再次起疑心時，決定采取更加極端的措施。他在易趣上發起競拍，將他的“愛欺騙撒謊，不貞的妻子”賣給出價最高的人。出價達到了一百多萬美元。

莎朗奧斯伯恩否認欺騙了他的丈夫，并且向警方提起指控，控告他的騷擾行為，本報報道說。

三周千，莎朗懇求保羅再次接納她。她搬回去住了，但是兩周之后，保羅再次信服她在欺騙他。

保羅說：“在一陣憤怒之后，我在易趣上留言了。之后我將它取消了因為我意識到這樣做不對。我只是非常生氣。”

但是莎朗已經向警方提起控訴，確信今天他們正在調查，她說：“已經從兩個人處取得了陳述”。
