    BEWARE: Scam eBay E-Mail

    Just wanted to warn everyone to be careful what links they click in e-mails from what appears to be eBay. I just got this one. The links lead to a now disabled website that was apparently being used to set up a fake log-in page and steal passwords.

    yeah, ebay emails will always include your full name. If I'm concerned about a message they send I always open a new window and go to my ebay bookmark and log in there and see if the message is in my account.

    Also a tip if you do fall for this and type your password in... Just go to your ebay account and change your password.

    Another tip-off is that it came from sender address '[email protected]'

    But thanks for the heads up - it's always good to know when e-mail scams like that are circulating!

    Some of us "old dogs" may think this stuff is a no-brainer but you would be amazed the number of people who will click those links and enter their information.
