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 "http://pages.ebay.com/confidence/auto-confirm/ SignIn&co=&UsingSSLid?=10034".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual eBay URL.

Dear eBay Member,
In an effort to protect your eBay account security, we have suspended
your account until such time that it can be safely restored to you. We
have taken this action because your password may have been
compromised. Sometimes this happens when members respond to an email
asking for personal information. Although those emails appear to come
from eBay, they are really sent by people attempting to gain access to
your account. Although we cannot disclose our investigative procedures
that led to this conclusion, please know that we took this action in
order to maintain the safety of your account.
Please change the password that you use on the EMAIL account that you
have registered to your eBay account. Make sure that it is also
different from the password that you use on your eBay account. By
doing this we can ensure that you are the only one that can access any
further communication we may have with you.
Once you have taken steps to secure your email, please confirm your
account information in order to restore your account access. You
can reach the Confirm Page by viewing the page below:
http://pages.ebay.com/confidence/auto- confirm/SignIn&co=&UsingSSLid?=10034
If you are unable to confirm your account information through the
Confirmation page after taking these steps, please wait for a second notice.
We will contact you by email after short period of time.
Please be aware that there may be a delay in responses sent by email.
Regards,
SafeHarbor Department
eBay Inc.
