These fake ebay emails have been going around lately, one trick is (ebay showed me this) is to check your address bar when you have the email on your screen and any email from ebay will have "ebay" in the first part of the address. This helps me at least, I do a lot of buisness on ebay and get several ebay related emails a day.

the address in the bar that is authentic will also begin with "cgi" and not the "scgi"... Someone could be easely fooled with these though if you are not carefull. This is why I posted this all over... WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

i also
I also rec'd that a while back and just ignored it. I figured if it was important they would get in touch again. FYI Ebay also owns paypal now. So they get paid twice anytime a transaction is completed with that service. They just cant quite make enough money........

Forward any suspicous mail to spoof@ebay.com . Same thing for paypal, forward to spoof@paypal.com . It gives them a path to follow back to the scam artists.
