I had one of those phishing emails this morning pretending to be from eBay. I've posted it at SpamBank and it appears that the site owner may have given genuine contact details. So either someone has hacked his site or we may actually be able to do something here. I'll keep the email but this is the source <DIV><BR> <DIV id=message> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0 ?> <TBODY> <TR> <TD><!--eBay V3- msxml 4.0 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX--> <STYLE>#message .SectionTitle {font-size: small; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:bold } #message .SmallTitle {font-size: x-small; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:bold } #message .SectionBody {font-size: x-small; font-family: arial, sans-serif} #message .DetailTable, #message .DetailTable th {font-size: 10 pt; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:normal } #message .Title {font-size: medium; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif} #message .BodyFont {font-size: 10 pt; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:normal} #message .BodyFontStrong {font-size: 10 pt; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:bold} #message .SmallBody {font-size: xx-small; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:normal; margin-top: 8 px; margin-bottom: 6 px} #message .Separator { COLOR: #CCCCCC; height: 1px} #message .HighlightedSeparator { COLOR: #9999CC; height: 1px} #message .FooterSeparator { COLOR: #CCCCCC; height: 1px} #message .Footer, #message .Footer p {font-size: xx-small; font-family:arial, sans-serif; color:#666666; margin-top: 2 px; margin-bottom: 8 px} #message .SmallPara, #message .SmallParap {margin-top: 8 px; margin-bottom: 6 px}</STYLE> <STYLE> #message .ItemTitle {font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-weight:bold }</STYLE> <XBODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=600> <TBODY> <TR> <TD style="WORD-WRAP: break-word" width=600> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=2 width="100%" bgColor=#eeeef8 border=0 xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"> <TBODY> <TR> <TD><A href="http://www.ebay.com/" target=_blank><IMG src="http://pics.ebaystatic.com/aw/pics/email/eBayLogo.gif" align=right border=0></A><font size="4" face="Verdana">eBay request: Confirm your eBay account.</font></TD> </TR> <TR bgColor=#9999cc height=2> <TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> <font size="2" face="Arial, Verdana">Dear eBay customer,<br> <br> Due to recent activity, including possible unauthorized listings placed on your account, we will require a second confirmation of your identity with us in order to allow us to investigate this matter further.Your account is not suspended, but if in 48 hours after you receive this message your account is not confirmed we reserve the right to suspend your eBay registration.
