This on got me at first, and I am ALWAYS sceptical, never have opened these. It came to me as an e-mail from a seller who stated that my item had been shipped, to let him konw when it arrived and leave feedback that would be reciprocated. I could only remeber one item that I am expecting and this name(s) did not look familiar so I clicked on the item number to see what exactly this was. Upon clicking on the link, I opened the normal e-bay sign in page; entered my screen name and password without thought and hit enter, THEN I get the e-bay page asking for proof of identification. This was an official (looking) ebay form asking for your name,address account number, item number etc. CLOSE THIS CRAP NOW!!! I then opend the real E-bay and searched on th item number from the e-mail and came up with no results BUT under the related searches I was given........antman1123 & barnsley1105........Both of these names were in the e-mail I recieved, one as the sender and one as a "potential buyer" ??? Forwarded the e-mail to e-bay with all this info and the queston of whether I need to change my screenname and password now.

change password ASAP.
then take the link and start putting in all kinds of login names and passwords. Like ...
