Hi

I almost fell for this one myself. A good idea is to download the latest
eBay toolbar which will alert you whenever you are about to log into a fake
eBay or Pay Pal site.

Emne: [Luc] Beware New Ebay Scam to get Your Password !

there is a new Ebay scam which looks like the real thing

you get what seems to be a real Ebay message from another Ebay member.

It uses Ebay's "Use the Yellow Button" anonymity message to hide the 
sender's identity

If it were a real Ebay member message, you would  us the yellow button 
link to log into your account, and reply to the message.

But this is a phony message, so when you use the FAKE yellow reply 
button, you are giving away your password!!

ONLY reply to anonymous Ebay member messages AFTER you log into the Ebay 
site.  

The proof of a FAKE Yellow Button message is that it will NOT be your 
Ebay message folder!

Feel free to post this warning to other lists.

Stephen Gandy
