" It has come to our attention that your eBay Billing Information records are out of date. "...

The link in this email has been disguised using HTML code to conceal its destination, and using it will load a bogus eBay web form in your brwoser which requires personal and financial information from you.

The URL of the bogus eBay web form should give the game away - http://escrow.host.sk/ssl/eBayISAPI.htm... which resolves to a web hosting provider in Bratislavia, Slovakia and is clearly nothing to do with eBay at all.

Any information submitted into the bogus eBay form is processed through a script located on the same server and sent to 4 different email addresses for the identity thieves to retrieve at their convenience - secretl0ve@yahoo.com, punjabi3344@aol.com, myashue@juno.com, pfractor@netzero.com.

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.
