Something looks Phishy here

In the past couple of months I've gotten a few emails like this:

"Question about Item -- Respond Now"

It looks legit but when I plug the item number in to a search I get nothing, so I ignor it. To day I got one, tried searching the item number with no results. So tried the user name (bluebellvue), no results. I did a Yahoo searck with these results.

The email looks legit with links supposedly to the item and user along with a question, which is not specific.

Anyone else getting these.
Alright! Who removed the cork from my lunch?

    Only pay attention to messeges you get inside your "My eBay" account. If it goes to your regular email address just delete it.

    They've been deleted with the last one fowarded to ebay's spoof dept.

    Thanks, Mike
