Have fun - Wind up an Ebay Scammer Today!

I received this in my morning email:



I couldn't copy the Mercedes Benz at the bottom as it is off my screen.

If you click on the link it leads to:

:

I think this is a brilliantly executed scam, the best I have seen - so far. All the links are genuine and it would fool some ebayers, I am certain - even down to the bogus secure server comment in the url!

Investigating the root directory leads to:

>>Enter your Ebay, Bank, Social Security Numbers<<

So my morning challenge is fill it in - give them some excitement - make their day - pretend to be a mug!

I filled in the various boxes as `Robert Peel, New Scotland Yard and my password was: Iamontoyou. However I am certain you can do better - they really need some US fraud squad examples to give them a bit more excitement.

I have reported it to ebay, but this lot will be long gone before they react.

For those simple folks (Yup, some still exist!) who don't know that the answer to everything is 42 - THIS IS A SCAM, DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT FILL IN YOUR REAL DETAILS Sorry folks, there is no real Mercedes Benz awaiting you at the end of the rainbow!
