Earlier today I bid on an item in e-bay and noticed a message in my yahoo mail
box several hours later. The message appears to come from e-bay but is a spoof.
The email directs that I log in with my user ID and password to update the
information or I will not not be able to register again with e-bay. The message
is from a site that is redriecting your inforamtion to an unknown source. This
message is not from e-bay. I know a lot of our members use ebay often and I hope
no one becomes a victim of this fraud. The subject line is LeanCard Security
Request. I have attached a copy of the e-mail below.
From: "aw-confirm@ebay.com" <aw-confirm@ebay.com> | This is not spam | Add to
Address Book
To: "Chamberscd" <chamberscd@yahoo.com>

| (...) Does the email contain a link for you to update the information or is it telling you to log into e-bay? Thanks for this info. Nothing is safe anymore. =( -AHui A&M LWorks (URL) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)
