Postby McBlzr » Sun Oct 23, 2005 7:44 pm

I just got this Phishing email as an eBay notice! Thought I should share this new scam with everybody!

:-x eBay Unpaid Item Strike Received: #6787143731




You have received an Unpaid Item strike
You were the winning buyer on eBay item #6787143731 .The seller, has informed eBay that payment for the item has still not been received, or that the two of you were not able to come to agreement. As a result, you have received an Unpaid Item strike.

Remember, Unpaid Item strikes may result in your suspension from eBay.

:-x :-x :-x :-x

You need to report it to ebay here. They do take action on these. I had a couple and they were good about following up on it.

I always report mine to eBay immediately! Since this has gotten to be a common occurance phishing me. I always Forward them to Spoof@ebay.com then ebay replys back thanking me reporting them.

Is the problem really that bad? (as in, the massive amount of phishing that goes on)
The new IE needs to come out soon with it's antiphishing capability :yesnod:
