[muglo] eBay Scam

>I know that we normally don't bring this type of thing to the list, but
>this was so blatant, and so potentially damaging that I felt there needs
>to be a warning, if you haven't already gotten one.

>Tonite I received an email telling me that my ebay account was in
>jeopardy of being cancelled if I did not update my information. It was
>quite colorful, and almost appeared legit. What was more convincing
>however, was the link which led to the alleged ebay site. Note the two
>links below. The first one was actually hidden but was triggered when
>you clicked on the second one, which is in fact a legitimate ebay site
>link.

>Check out the top link, and see if it doesn't look legit. The giveaway
>of course is the url you can see once you get there. The form asks for
>ss number, mother's maiden name, c-card info, PIN, etc. And you just
>know that these guys are sucking this very sensitive information from
>unsuspecting ebay members. So, heads up!
