Ok guys here's another.

Just received a real official looking email from "eBay"(aw-confirm <at> ebay.com) with the subject "Security Check". It's a scam to get your password. They use links to eBays pictures and the form looks real, but the form submission goes to a different address. i forwarded it to the real eBay Security.

Gary;
I recieved one of those a few weeks ago, thought it was just a fluke and didn't want to start everyone into a panic, but, now that it's started to hit more, I'm glad I'm not the only one that was almost fooled by the e-mail

yea my dad did that and now we get about 25 spam mails a day, and I even went over that with my dad that it wasnt real.....but he did it anyways a week later.

Jordan,

Get on to the EBay site as soon as possible and change your password! Someone somewhere now has your password and can steal your identity on EBay.

Also change your Paypal password and make sure it is different from the new EBay password.

EBay & Paypal NEVER send an e-mail asking for your password/s
The only time they ask for these is when you are securely online on their web pages. ANY other request for a password is a SCAM!

I knew that ebay would never ask for passwords or anything unless you change something on the site, it was all my dad and I cant change the password or ebay name for 30 days.
