This scam is designed to obtain the username and password of unsuspecting eBay members.
The scammer sends you an email that appears to come from eBay, it actually looks incredibly authentic and even eBay Customer Service Representatives have been surprised by it.
This is what the message looks like I have removed names and item numbers for obvious reasons but a proper username is usually given. Of course there is also no link in my image.
Sorry this image is disjointed, I had to break it into parts in order to be able to post it here.
IGNORE THE MESSAGE DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK IT WILL TAKE YOU TO A FALSE EBAY WEBSITE
Forward the offending email to eBay and just forget all about it. The scammer does not know you, these are always random.
