Sample Scam (Phishing) Email on Ebay - Sample 1

Understand: Ebay did NOT send this; it is from a conman, who made it look like an Ebay email! You can not trust that the emails you receive are from who they claim to be.  Do not follow the links in the email, but instead, go to the source by using a Google search or just type the address in your browser (example: www.ebay.com ) and then look for any alerts.
