Sample Scam (Phishing) Email on Ebay - Sample 2

Understand: Ebay did NOT send this; it is from a conman, who made it look like an Ebay email! You can not trust that the emails you receive are from who they claim to be.  Do not follow the links in the email, but instead, go to the source by using a Google search or just type the address in your browser (example: www.ebay.com ) and then look for any alerts.

Names used by scammers in the examples on this page and others often belong to real people and businesses who often have no knowledge of nor connection to the scammer's use of their name and information.  Sample scam emails and other documents are copies of the scam to help potential victims recognize and avoid it.  You should presume that any names used and presented here in a scam are either fictitious or used without their legitimate owner's permission.
