I received the following email today supposedly from eBay. It looks very official, and when you click on the link it still looks official, and when you hit submit it takes you to eBay. Very scary.
I have had no problems buying or bidding so I investigated, went to eBay's site, and submitted it to them.
It is a spoof! If you get an email or link asking for this type of information send it to
spoof@ebay.com immediately.
