New eBay email scam

[3dzapper]

Doesn't this look "official"? I sent it to spoof@ebay.com and got a personal reply that indeed it was a spoof and quite possibly contained a virus if any of the links were clicked.

One thing to notice, it does not contain my eBay name. That is what tipped me off to the perp's phishing.

BEWARE!!!!!

Rick,

Thanks for the heads up. I get Ebay phishing e-mail sometimes several times a day... however, had no idea that some might be set up as virus attacks as well.

If these scammers worked this hard at a regular job, they might make some money.
