    Wow someone is scamming for info using eBay

    Did anyone else get this scam e-mail today? Check the link and how realistic it is.


    Dear valued eBay member:

    It has come to our attention that your eBay billing updates are
    out of order. If you could please take 5-10 minutes out of your
    online experience and update your billing records you will not run
    into any future problems with the online service. However, failure
    to update your records will result in account termination. Please
    update your records by May 25th.

    Once you have updated your account records your eBay session will not be
    interrupted and will continue as normal. Failure to update will result in
    cancellation of service, Terms of Service (TOS) violations or future billing
    problems.

    To update your eBay records click here:

                  I thought it was real at first but then checked the e-mail headers.

                  Status: U
                  Return-Path: <[email protected]>
                  Received: from extro.vurt.net ([203.30.75.6])

                  and the link goes to a simulated ebay account update page.

                                  anyone who fills out that form deserved to be scammed.
                                  it asks for SSN.
                                  it asks for online banking username and pasword.
                                  checking account number and routing number.

                                  basically, enough information for someoen to take over your identity.

                                              I was kinda puzzled when the link led to a real eBay page.

I started filling it out, cause I clicked a link to check and it went to eBay and then I hit the back button thinking it was real. Then I saw where the form was asking for banking info and I realized wait a sec I don't have any banking info on eBaby.

                                                                  Then I checked the message headers and traced the IP and saw Romania for the server location.

                                                                  But most people would be easily duped.
