WARNINGS

1. Pay attention to the URLs used in this phishing scam - they are IP addresses, which you would not see when visiting any genuine eBay page.

 

" Fraud Alert ID : 00626654. Dear eBay member, You have received this email because you or someone else had used your identity to make fake purchases on eBay. "...

 

If you have received this email, please remember that it is very common for these email scams to be redistributed at a later date with only slightly different content or the same but with the fake page(s) hosted by a different provider. Also, once you have received one of these hoaxes, it is also common place to receive at least another one and usually a day or two after the first, although not necessarily from the same apparent sender.
