    I've been getting mass quantities of fake Microsoft update viruses. Between 5 and 15/day for the last week.

    I wonder where these scumbags get your email address....I've been using Ebay for about two years and this is the first one that I received.....I tried Auction Sniper two days ago....Hmmm, I wonder...I just changed my password just in case.

    Looks pretty convincing. Just showed up in my box too. Must have gotten our emails from the same place.

    I got one from "ebay" also looking for credit card numbers, mother's mailden name, bank accounts, etc yesterday. I forwarded the e-mail to spoof@ebay.com also. I have to admit the e-mail looks exactly like it could be from e-bay. I hope we all know to be very wary anytime we give out sensitive information.
