I did my bidding live, online via their website. I could see/hear the auctioneer pointing and calling out the action, while also hearing "my" guy call out my bids with a "BID!" each time I clicked the next increment. He was sitting screen left, which threw me at first since "I" am inside the camera so that's where I expected the auctioneer to point. Anyway, I don't think this auction could/would do that, but auctions where all bids are sealed/hidden and managed offline and away from bidders... I could see shenanigans happening there.
