ebay PHISHING emails. be careful

[guinaevere]

There are more phishers sending out emails claiming to be Unpaid Item disputes that need your response. The link looks like ebays log in and password page, but it isn't them. The url alone shows it's some scammer.


Just an FYI.

Are these in the ebay message system, or sent to your email?

Eastside, I put the info in the title but I didn't specify enough.

There are emails sent out to accounts which have ties to ebay and/or paypal. They are not internal ebay messages.

I got one of these and it was pretty damn convincing, be careful!

Yea, I got a false ebay email too. I read somewhere on ebay that any message sent by ebay should show up in your ebay account. So, just make sure you receive the message in your ebay account.

So ill just use the ebay account messages. Whats the email address?

i never ever open any email from "ebay". Just delete all such email and log into your account directly from ebay's site(or paypal) to check your account, ive been getting these emails for maybe 5 or 6 years now.
