Ebay scam?

[Koing]

I received this email:

Dear eBay User,

As a result, your access to bid or buy on eBay has been restricted.

According to our site policy you will have to confirm that you are the real owner of the eBay account by completing the form that will pop up or else your account will be deleted.

After you will login please complete the form that will pop up in order to complete your registration.

Without completing that form your verification will not be completed

No, it's real. Go ahead and click and confirm your info.





















Seriously, if you even have to ask, you deserve to get taken for a ride by these jokers.

Calm down dude. Just confirming and warning others if they happen to see this also.

The link use to work but now it doesn't. I didn't enter my details in it.

1. eBay will never ask you to login from any URL other than the eBay home page (http://www.ebay.com).
2. eBay will never delete you account. They'll suspend it.
3. Remember that sender's email adress and links in an email can be forged.
4. eBay will not use Urgent function of emails.
5. eBay will never use Copyright eBay 1995-2004. eBay uses current calendar year in its copyright notice.

My recommendation is to check and see if the link that's in the email matches with the link it takes you to (a.k.a. check if URLs match.)
