<< <i>It used to be fairly easy to get eBay members email addresses. Scammers wrote scripts to harvest email addresses from eBay. The list this scammer is using is an old one as I have received several copies of this message on an old email accout I have not used on eBay for over a year. I have received many spoof emails for eBay and Paypal in the last few months at my old email address but none on the address I currently use. >>
I was curious..I have been an eBay member since 1996 and have never been contacted by one of these scammers....
