To add to this, ANY message you get from ebay, ignore. Sign in to ebay
with a new browser page, or thru YOUR bookmark, and check "My
Messages", on your "My eBay" page. If it's a real email, it will be
included in "My Messages". You can then follow any link in THAT
message.
It's tempting to respond to these scams with a lot of nasty or glib
passwords and suchlike, but you're better off not doing that. Just
forward it to "spoof@ebay"" , or "Spoof@paypal. If ou can, add the long
headers ( I can do it with a click of a button), they help to trace the
message back.
Use "spam@xxxxxxx (U. S. U. S. Gov)". for all those other "Have I got a
deal for you" emails. Seem like there's lots of Orphans in these 3rd
world countries that want to share their millions with me.

Just want everyone to be aware, if you use ebay, this is the latest in
fake ebay emails to be going around.? If you click on any of these
links, they will steal your ebay and Paypal password, and then who
knows what might happen.? Again, DO NOT click on these links, and do
not sign in to these clever fake sites.? A real email from ebay would
include your personal name and ebay name on the first line.
