Beware Of Spoofs

I got this email this morning that said "Your eBay account could be Suspended" looked pretty real. There was a link to go to what looked like a real eBay web page. It wanted all my eBay info, username, password, paypal password and credit card info. I contacted eBay via an instant message through the real eBay web sight. They told me it was BS. Anybody get one of these emails you need to forward it to spoof@ebay.com. :shocking:

Thanks for the warning. I guess they keep trying. I got this one a while back--and don't even have an e-bay account.

Yeah, I saw that. I hovered over one of the links to the eBay site, and the lower panel on my browser said it pointed to something like FreeGolfLessons or something like that. That's all I needed to know.
