From: "account-suspension@ebay.com" <account-suspension@ebay.com> Add to Address Book
To: "Order12345678" <order12345678@yahoo.com>
Subject: Unauthorised eBay Account Access
Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2003 10:36:10 +0100















Dear eBay User,

We recently noticed one or more attempts to login into your eBay
account from a foreign IP address and we have reasons to believe that
your account has been hijacked by a third party without your
authorization.


In order to protect your sensitive information or unauthorized listings we temporarily suspended your account for further investigations. To reactivate your account, click on the link below and confirm your identity by completing the secure form that will appear.


If you recently accessed your account while traveling, the unusual
login attempts may have been initiated by you.

Take our apologies for any inconvenience that this may cause.


Thank you

    I always click on the links and put real obscene messages in the blanks and submit them. May as well have a little fun with the thieving b@st@rds

    I'd challenge you to a battle of wits...... but you appear unarmed

    "Stop talking, negotiating,
    Your feeble attempts at world peace
    Give me a %#@*ing break
    Need worldwide genocide, planetary suicide
    And when the whole damn world is dead
    there's your %#@*ing peace"
