I never received any email from ebay - it must either be a dodgy email or they only sent them to selective recipients.

Never respond to emails like that especially if they ask for information, they can copy a sites email to a tee, can appear original, but a site will never ask your for info via email if they inform you they will tell you to go to the site and sign in same with banks or any site etc that takes money from you never click on an email link to give out information, scammers are very good at what they do, so are hackers, never trust email, always go to the main site.

The same here & the only one that I get junk in like this is the one I used for e/Bay & pay pal.
I never started getting these e-mails till I used e-bay which is ONE of the reason I will not use e/bay & would not recommened it either.

A bit of topic but....hi ya pink how are you? been awhile! (smirk) LOL

It would seem that my ebaying days may be over if I read correctly, aren't they making everyone use paypal for buying and selling? Not quite sure how it works :-S
