Another ebay email scam

I got an email that led me to a similar page (though I think it was longer and asked for even more info. It was REALLY convincing. IMO they only made two mistakes in the email. The Email asked for my username and password and they said my bidding privelages were suspended untill I filled out their form. Well I went to ebay and had no problem bidding on anything. I put fake info in the email and it took me to a page like you linked. I knew it was fake when it asked for my SSN, checking account info, etc.

I got the same thing. I just tried to fill in a fake username and password but the site it tried to bring up is down. Maybe eBay already shut it down.

 
I never give out my info stuff on sites like those. Just look at the url and how the site is.
