New eBay fraud email

[thewayne]

The one asking you to confirm the sale of Item X has branched out, they're now using a variety of products. I'm getting a lot for US Robotics modems, I can't conceive of anyone having a good use for them. ANYWAY, I found this in my junk mail folder tonight:

eBay

Naturally the URLs do not point to an eBay site. The insidious thing about this is that most users are likely to use the same password for both eBay and PayPal, so if they got your login, it would be easy for them to drain your bank account through PayPal.

They need to line some of these fraudsters up against the wall and give everyone whom they have defrauded a BB machine gun.
