I have no idea who he is and what hes on about but he seems pretty certain ive scammed him from the text above
his name at the bottom of the email doesnt match his ebay ID
I clicked the respond button and it takes me to a page where you enter user and pass
I clicked it and the link was http://www.ebayloginiinfo.5gi[....]e=222&pa1=&i1=-1&UsingSSL.html
im pretty sure that aint the proper link - i think its trying to nick your password
so i tried typing in a fake pass and it rejected it
so then i tried logging into ebay on ebay.co.uk and i checked my messages in box but his message aint there but all the others are that i received today
i think this is a scam but maybe im wrong?
jus thought i would let you lot know to make sure you dont fall for it

i got a similar email about 6 months ago but it was an end of auction email saying i had spent $1,125 on sex toys,
had the same look as an ebay email and had a login link which also looked the same as ebays.

I had two of them last week. The best thing is, I'm not even a registered ebay member, I've never bought or sold anything on ebay in my life

they are scams. I have had maybe 3-4 in the last 2 weeks. I do not even touch the links in case of virus.

There are now a few variations on that 'login' scam. I got one recently supposedly from Ebay saying that a listing I had for an Xbox and 15 games had been cancelled as it broke Ebay rules on chipping and modding. I've never in my life owned an Xbox, let alone be selling one! Hovering the mouse over the clickable link in the email would have sent me to some address in Romania.
