-
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 REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://signin.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? SignIn".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual eBay URL.
