    *WARNING* eBay & Paypal Spoof E-mails

    For those of you that have a eBay or Paypal account, there are spoof e-mails hitting people this week. I received 2 bogus eBay e-mails
    Subject: Ebay Account Verification From: service@ebay.com and 1 bogus paypal e-mail Subject: E-Mail ID #4516 Notification of Limited Account Access from: service@paypal.com

    If you received one of these DON'T ANSWER IT.

    All three e-mails were comfirmed as spoofs.
    Just thought I'd warn ya.

    "I just don't understand...
    I've cut it three times and it's still too short!"

    Yep, got one yesterday.

    Looked so real I "thought about it" for a fleeting instant.

    Again, don't respond to them.

    Report them to spoof@ebay.com or spoof@paypal.com

    to report them - simply forward them to the above address

    Thanks for the warnings I just open an account with both yesterday. I'll watch for them.
    Days without wood working aren't worth getting up for.

    Glenmore,

    respond to an email from ebay or paypal, when they give you a link to connect you to their login in screen.
