I can not believe I saw this was fake and like an idiot I used a link in the email to log into eBay. 2 seconds after I did I realized what I did and immediately went to the right eBay and logged in and changed my password. Then I used Live help and had them remove all my financial account info from MyeBay. I hope that does it.

hope you don't get burned, dude...

I got a spoof a couple days ago that said something to the tune of 'you may receive several copies of this email because multiple people are researching the problem - you only need to reply to one of the emails'

Of course, I simply deleted them and moved on...

Got a great PayPal spoof the other day. Wish I had saved it to share with you. It was the standard PayPal message when you make a payment (Receipt for your payment to .....).

It looked perfect and said that I had paid some guy $150 for a watch. What caught my eye was a message at the bottom that said something like "If you think this payment was made in error, click here to stop payment."

I was about to click when the lights went on "Something doesn't look right".

Closed my email and logged into PayPal directly. Sure enough, no payment had been made.

Phew!!!

Probably that you never bought a $150 watch on ebay,maybe that didn't look right. And yet, it's the $150 that makes the biggest impression to the brain, such is human nature.
