I don’t know why, but I’ve recieved a number of these emails apparently from EBay telling me that my account has been suspended.
I don’t know why, because I never use it. The only thing I’ve done lately is to track three items to see how they faired in bidding.
Any ideas???
Here’s the message -

Contact eBay through another address or link and ask them what is up. Failing that David, stop trying to con people out of their eBay dollars by trying to sell already sold Fromment four regulator concert pitched pipes…
David do you have the ability to view the header of that message? Chances are it’s spoofed and didn’t emanate from eBay.
Joseph’s right, DON’T follow the link on the email, rather go directly to eBay and sort things out there.
not just smells like…it is…report it to spoof@ebay.com by forwarding the whole thing along with the headers and they will pursue legal action and have the site removed.
Whenever I get weird emails like this I do a Web search for some of the text; they invariably turn out to be scams, you get plenty of hits for sites dealing with this sort of malarkey.
Hey guys,
Maybe the scam is on us David has posted the whole message including the link (probably in the hope that we’ll click on it and unleash a ‘Trojan’ virus or never ending spams!!!). I reckon David preys on discussion forums, trying to infect its users computers with viruses. I’ll bet that David’s next post will be a link ebay, supposedly for us to check out a Geoff Woof full set selling for $50!
Watch it David (if that’s your real name) - we’ve got our eyes on you
…also be careful of any fake Ebay “question for seller” E-mail’s. I kept getting them & reporting them to Ebay, last summer…turn’s out my comp was infected by the sachost.exe trojan. Lil bugger keep’s a diary of all your keystroke’s, password’s, credit card number’s, They auto-redirect to a site which apparently download’s more code. AdAware missed it because I didn’t update it…got Spybot Search & Destroy, now. It was a minor inconvenience that re-installing my OS & changing all my password"s fixed. :roll:
