MAJOR EBAY EMAIL SPOOF BEWARE!!

Beware all ebayers! I have recently recieved an e-mail from the actual admin at ebay asking for me to input my ebay account details and my e-mail details and password.

I have forwarded the e-mail off to ebay and am awaiting confirmation that it is, in fact, an attempt to hack my account. Please be on guard in the upcoming weeks as to e-mails coming through your account regarding ebay.

Andy

Any scam for eBay or Paypal or anyone else will either prompt you to enter your login information right into the webpage in the e-mail or send you to a non-SSL site. That's another sure give away.

If all people could be educated on what to look for there would less computer scams going on. That's not any one persons fault, it's just the problem.
