$336.4 million Powerball jackpot unclaimed
LONDON, May 15 (UPI) -- A British man who said he believed his wife was cheating is under investigation for harassment after he put her up for sale on eBay.
Paul Osborn, 44, said he had heard rumors that his wife of 24 years, Sharon, was having an affair with a man at work, 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.
Sharon Osborn denies cheating on her husband and has filed a police complaint against him for harassment, the newspaper report said.
