-
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://users.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll? OneTimePayment&ssPageName=h:h:sin:US".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website is hidden by a hyperlinked image in the body of the email. This is a technique used to get past spam filters that can only read normal text.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website has been chosen to look very similar to the actual eBay URL. Do not be fooled!
