ebay and paypal never send that kind of email! I get them all the time, and got tired of turning them in to almost instantly get another!

I received one a few weeks ago. It looked fishy so I sent it to Ebay and got the reply that they turned it over to the authorities. Beware!!

Cheers for that Dave: I've had a few of those phishing emails. Just bin them now, got fed up sending them to ebay.

I click on the e-mail's link and fill out the blanks with some choice opinions of their scam.

Not a good idea gspig.Their info harvester robot will need less than a second to reap every last bit of unprotected info on your box.The moment you open that link the robot kicks in.
