I got sent an e-mail from Ebay today, heres what the subject was :

FPA NOTICE: eBay Registration Suspension - Section 9 - Fraud Alert -24 Hour

The e-mail said something like if I do not fill in this form below I will be suspended for not solving my problems.

I dont know what problems they are but as I was filling in the form I noticed that the e-mail didn't look like any other e-mails Ebay have sent me. There was an Ebay Logo but no contact number or e-mail address so I thought i'd ask on here whether any of you have got this kinda message?

I also had to fill in some really personal questions as well like the password for my e-mail, ALL of my card details (inc the pin number) and loads of other stuff that most companies dont ask for.

Why would they need my password for my registered e-mail?

Seems a bit weird to me so before I fill in the rest of the form and send it what do you think?

Don't you think it's a little, um, 'strange' that they want your CREDIT CARD number, along with your PIN? THINK ABOUT IT.
