Typical ebay 'phishing' spam

NOTE: There is no account on ebay for the email address shown

BTW, send me spam and lose your account. Simple.

Please note the link in the email below; it looks like it is an actual ebay website, but it actually goes to http://210.188.194.161/.ws/eBaySuspension/signin.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dllSignIn-ssPageName-hhsin.php which is not an ebay site.

 

This is a typical 'phishing' spam and it's intent is to get you to supply your ebay login information. The spamscammer can then login to your ebay account and change your password, effectively 'hijacking' your ebay account. Not nice.
