-
Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at eBay by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- eBay never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.
-
The spoof website this email links to was not online at time of this report, but variations of the scam which link to working websites are bound to exist, so be wary! The website may have been taken down or disabled by the hosts, but quite often these websites are hosted on the personal computer of the phishers, so may only be online at certain times.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual eBay URL.

Dear eBay Customer!
To protect the security of your account, eBay employs some of the most advanced security systems in the world and our anti-fraud teams regularly screen the eBay system for unusual activity. We recently have determined that different computers have logged on to your eBay account, and multiple password failures were present before the logons. We now need you to re-confirm your account information to us. If this is not completed in 48 hours, we will be forced to suspend your account indefinitely, as it may have been used for fraudulent purposes.
We thank you for your cooperation in this manner. In order to confirm your eBay records, we may require some specific information from you.
