Oh no! My account is locked from ebay (again)!
How odd, considering I don’t have an ebay account as far as I know of. Yet, I get this email once a week!
If you feel you have been locked in error or want to appeal this decision by providing additional information, please contact us. *
An email regarding this was sent to you in your e-mail.
To confirm your unlock on file at eBay, just click the button below:
**
This will confirm to eBay that your account is working.
Sure it will!!!! LMAO!!!!
* Link to contact “ebay” goes to http://www.singin-now.go.ro/come-to-become-an-power-seller in-respect-reconoscare-rewared.html
** Button image originates from http://www.geocities.com/syllvesttre/Questions/
And the link goes to http://sign.in.now.home.ro/eBayISAPIsigninebay.html
oooookay……
If at this point you don’t know what a phishing scam is, you’re hopeless.
And honestly, anyone who clicks on those links in their email *DESERVES* what happens to them. ![]()

Agreed!
All one has to do it mouse over the link and the status bar at the bottom will show the real link. I forward these kinds of emails to ebay all the time.

Yup!
And I see this on PayPal now.
“As part of our ongoing effort to enable PayPal users to protect themselves from spoof (fake) websites, we’ve developed Account Guard, a new feature on the eBay Toolbar that identifies when you are on an authentic eBay or PayPal website and warns you when you are on a potentially fraudulent website.
eBay Toolbar is a free, downloadable tool that will help protect your PayPal account.”
Download the eBay Toolbar with Account Guard now by visiting the toolbar page at http://www.ebay.com/ebay_toolbar.
Sounds like a good idea!
I hope these Phishing scam artists do hard time in Club Fed! I hate them!

Well -e- at least it wasn’t one of those e-mail messages telling you that the author is some heir to the fortune of a Ghanian King, and that if you send them your bank account you will be sharing a shit load of millions!
How you doing dude?
