Keep waiting, Ed...I'm sure you will be getting the one for a "Free Gift" for being such a good eBay member. And maybe even the one for the " Free $100.00 Gift Certificate"!! Buddy

I have been on eBay for seven years and paypal since it started and I get about one or two scams a week from different crooks trying to get my passwords. I Never open anything, if eBay or PayPal needs to get in touch with you they will not ask for your password info. I almost fell for one a few weeks ago when I got a notice that there was a charge to my PayPal account from some watch dealer who was trying to charge my account $1,200.00 !

I also got the one from paypal about a $1200 charge and another one that said I had changed my e-mail address and they were just verifying. I'm sure they get some people who fall for these things. T

I got one from PayPal saying that my credit card had expired and to re-enter the info. Went to my account and it was fine. I did not use the link in the e-mail.

I have gotten both of the other two mentioned, several times. Usually they do not use your name in the heading. This time they used my email address. Usually it just says, "member".
I have won several foriegn lotteries so even if I get scammed on eBay I will still be solvent. lol
