Travler's Bank" account and did I want to stop it? and could I prove I 
was the real  me. Site looked pretty official..............what  was the

The link says I need to go to EBAY's website or I will be cut off by clicking on the below link (I tried to remove the hyperlink, but just in case don't go there) Embedded inside is a link that takes you to a website that only has the numerical IP address. So you can't tell if it is ebay or not.
