Default Look at this eBay scam, came to my email inbox.

Get a load of the grammar- "During our regular and verification of the accounts we couldn't verify your current information, either your information Has changed or it is incomplete." Something tells me this isn't an official eBay correspondence! Here is what came to me by email. Douchebags....

Update Your Credit / Debit Card On Your eBay File

Dear eBay member ,

During our regular and verification of the accounts we couldn't verify your current information, either your information Has changed or it is incomplete . if the account is not updated to current information within 5 days then , your access to Buy or Sell on eBay will be restricted

Go to the link below to Update your account information :

http://signin.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayIS...ame=h:h:sin:US

please dont reply to this email as you will not receive a response

Thank You for using eBay!

Hmmm, sign in page looks legit...Could this be genuine eBay correspondence? If so, they have third world ESL people writing for them.

That is the same URL you get if you go directly to Ebay, sign in and then sign out so who knows.

I just tried invalid login info on that link and it says

"Your sign-in information is not valid. Please try again."

It's a scam. I've have had a few of those type of emails sent to me over the last year and my ebay account stills works. DO NOT ENTER YOUR PERSONAL INFO.
