Reply to "Spoof gets smarter......"

I have had about three this week. The last one was supposedly a seller complaining that I had not contacted them or made any payment!
Obviously. what you do not do is go near any links.
The auction (USA only!) number did exist, and there was a winning bidder, so I contacted the seller to let them know something was amiss and then forwarded the spoof to ebay.
I have had quite a few 'payments from PayPal' phishing spoofs. Sadly, some people, although they know thay have received no payment, have $$$s in front of their eyes and go like lambs to the slaughter and click on the links.
