Earlier tonight I received an email message that
appeared to be from Ebay, saying they needed to check
on account security, etc., etc. There was a link that
you clicked on to complete the process, saying if you
didn't do this, you wouldn't be able to place anymore
bids.
The website you were directed to wanted name,
password, credit card number, and things like that.
Anyway, the web address for this form was in Italy. I
sincerely doubt that Paypal is now doing business from
Italy!
Be on the lookout for this, and do not fill out any
information. There was a paypal scam similar to this
a few months ago. The message looks like the real
thing, until you see the web address, and realize that
Ebay wouldn't send out unsolicited messages like this,
asking for this type of information.
