Fraudsters target eBay account holders who may have an outstanding amount on their accounts with this payment demand ...

 

This lengthy spoof eBay email (see image below) is in HTML format and contains a form which follows an explanation that you have an amount outstanding against your account and the form must be completed to make a payment.

Of-course the whole thing is a complete hoax and any information submitted into that form will sent on to the fraudsters who created it via a form to mail script at cybercom.netand to the following email address ... safeharbour@representative.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.
