Hello there ATers,

I am selling an item on ebay and received the following message:
Hello, my name is Andy Snapp. I am interested in your item. The problem is that I am a little confused because I've seen another item exactly like yours. Please take a look: http://3354296932/?www.ebay.com/UserId=&co_partnerId=2&siteid=0&pageType=-1&pa1
&i1=-1&UsingSSL=1&bshowgif=0&favoritenav=&ru=&pp=&errmsg=8.html Please inform me of your last price.

Now, clearly this isn't an ebay website. Is there anything that can be done? I've tried to whois the site with no luck.
 
I forgot to mention that the interesting thing was that the message wasn't just an e-mail from this guy. It was a regular ebay-generated message that someone sends to ask you a question about your item. The e-mail message itself isn't spoofed.
 
Sounds like someone's simply using ebay's message system to do whatever it is they're trying to do on that other site.
