I think this has been discussed here before. I was watching the news and there was
a report about "phishing". Someone with an Ebay account would get an e-mail
with a link in it. The e-mail would say you need to update your Ebay account. You
would click on the link and it would take you to a phony Ebay home page. (An
excellent electronic counterfeit copy.) They would ask you for your SSN# and
credit card #.

Interestingly, one of our Darkside members checked his eBay pages today, and noticed to his surprise that he was selling a $2,500 tractor he'd never owned or heard of!

I get the same bogus emails claiming to be from PayPal.
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
Knew that was bogus!

My wife and I have also received online billings, supposedly from Flowers.com for roses. Someone hacked their computers.
