I just received this email: Very clever and well done as most of these are. This may have been almost perfect if the fools had not misspelled "cupon".
If you hover over the link given, you could see it redirected to some phishing site and not eBay. This plays on the usual greed principal that you have something for nothing waiting for you. Hopefully not too many people fall for it. Be safe out there! ------------------ Kevin A. Black '99 Mostly stock - Borla Exhaust, Tom Mills Bumper Removal Kit, F/R mud flaps, Chrome Shiftknob and Chrome Shifter Bezel. Non-stock permanent grin on my face when driving! Pet? A Cat - a Black Cat of course!

I was told by e-bay if you recieve an e-mail from them that does not have your name on it they did not send it, only e-bay can have access to your name.

There is a sucker born every minute so I am sure that some will fall for it.
