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 has been chosen to look very similar to the actual eBay URL. Do not be fooled!
