    Do not answer-spoof e-mail. Any real eBay communication shows up under messages in My eBay.

    Spam, do not click link...Warning Warning big problems can arise
  • I'm having trouble with accessing Ebay - it takes ages to download and then once it is downloaded the page has a few red crosses.

    This has only happend recently.

    The site I use for my shares has been like this for over a week - what is wrong with it ??

    I've ran adware, virus detection programs etc but they don't pick up anything.

    btw i have deleted email.

    Edit: thanks for the fast reply guys. image

    Forward the email to spoof@ebay.com

    For paypal forward email to spoof@paypal.com

    They will respond to tell you if it is a fraud problem.image
  • Try dumping everything in your browser's cashe memory.

    You mean - go to Tools, then Internet Options etc ?

    I have already tried that but it didn't work.
  • Finally got into My Messages and guess what: No Ebay message.

    Now I have to sort out how to get my access back up to speed.

    Heeeeeelp !!!

    ( Please )

    First priority: CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD!

    After that... who knows what's up.

    Sound advice. #1-Change your password immediately along with whatever else they may now have access to because #2- You should NEVER click on these links in email. Why do you think they call it phishing (fishing) email? They throw out the bait, a fish comes along clicks the link and you now have a compromised account.

    Good luck. image

    I get these all the time from "Ebay", "Paypal", and a whole bunch of banks I've never hear of ("Sun Bank").
    I just delete them.

    No legitimate company or bank sends emails wanting account information. They already have it.

    No need to forward the emails to Ebay or somebody else.
    What would they do with it?

    Go tell that to Laura. image Of course you did say legitimate company and that kind of leaves eBay and Paypal out.
