"EBAY.....EMAILED ME"

Jeez, not everyone reads eBay's warnings about those e-mails!

I think they sent me one today, a few last week, plenty the week before. They're regular!

At least you know now @ngel. Had they gotten into your account, you would've had lots of shiny laptops and stuff up for auction! ;)

I hope they also picked up on this.

I wouldn't trust my password to a branch of ebay called SafeHarbor, I mean come on. :S

I wouldn't have posted it on here V....

Best to ask in emails or msn.

Unless you think these scammers have taken over those as well.

OMFG! SCAMMERS HAVE TAKEN OVER MICROSOFT!

Get real.

....

(1) Check if the message is genuine and if so then (2) reply to it.

But not the other way around.
