Guys here is a copy of an email I got today. I thought WTF. I began filling out the forms and got to the credit card form and looked to see if I was on a secure server, I was not! Out of curiousity I went to ebay the way I usually log in and there was nothing wrong with my account at all. I just wanted to let you know how tricky these SOB's are getting. Everything about the link is correct....even in the correct ebay format, EXCEPT the signin part of the link is siQnin, not siGnin.....assholes almost got me. BE CAREFUL!

I assume that you reported this to ebay??

i did

This is a pretty common thing now-a-days.

If you even hit their website I would recommend you change your eBay login and password immediately, password at the least.

Hi, for those that do not know you can Forward these types of scams to spoof@ebay.com. They will only accept the forwards with the scam.
