Many of you are aware of the different types of scams on internet, this is one of several you see that 'originates' from ebay. There are a mess of them out there like the "$20 Chase Survey" or "Laredo National Bank" or "put-any-credit-union name here" or "update your account" and so forth. All of them are intended for you to click on a link, which is anywhere from Nigeria, Britian, Romania, who knows, but it is a attepmt to steal your info, whether bank account, passwords, log in, user ID all of it. Thwe one below here won't have the official ebay headers and banners. But they sometimes show up, sometimes not, on the email the scammers send you. Some are threatening like "you cashed my chevk where is my item???" or "I'm going to turn you into ebay!" or as in the one below, tells you they have not gotten your paypal payment, like I would want a Chevy. On this one I simply looked at the item number which don't exist. So I didn't bother to even look up the 'seller' and simply forwarded whole mess to spoof@xxxxxxxx and spoof@xxxxxxxxxx since paypal was mentioned, they will then track it and shut it down on the servers end. But you gotta watch some of this stuff, as the scammers are really good and sneaky! ==================================================== Question for item #4645270941 - Chevrolet : Camaro Your registered name is included to show this message originated from eBay.
