Mark,
I'd suggest you stop useing ebay mate and sell me (for a fiver) anything you've bought off it recently. Just to be on the safe side of course.
Especially if it's a double page spread of something or the other!





I'll get me coat then!
Rob.
;)
Title: Warning - (Yet Another) Spoof eBay email
Post by: skull.ring on 28 November, 2005, 12:53:22 PM
Just thought I'd give everyone a "heads-up" as I have just received another spoof email about eBay.

What I found cheeky about this email is that it is supposedly from the seller of an auction you've just won and they are threatening to report you for non payment. Some people may panic about their feedback rating and inadvertantly give away their password etc.

Cheers

Mark

One of the new batch of rather stupid spoofs.
As well as that one, we've had:
"Where do i send payment for this item"
"Do you ship this item to..."
Always for items you've never heard of.
