It's OK, Shirl - I deleted the mail after forwarding it to ebay spoofs and never answer them. I just entered the auction number separately on ebay to see if there was actually such a number; many times there is not!

The phishers use links to activate their software to grab your ebay or PayPal ID and password, then proceed to change your identity.

Part of my job is to tell people how to guard themselves against this stuff.
