The site has already been yanked but, come on, does anybody ever actually fall for something this obvious?

Sorry, just you. ;)

So, does anyone ever "order" anything from EBay? What kind of info did the website want from you?

User name, password, the usual.

This scammer is an idiot, though. He sent it to the eMail address I registered with in the summer of 1997. They were using a beta version at that time, and I never confirmed the account when they went live. In other words, the account is dead, and cannot even be re-activated.

Are you saying I shouldn't have given them my credit card number?

;)

(No, I didn't get the e-mail)
