Guest dangerousandy Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I received an email today from someone I have not traded with on ebay. The message was very suspicious because the item number did not exsist and when you place the cursor over the links, instead of saying "ebay" in the text, they came up with a link to what i'm guessing is a spyware site! The ebay members name was/is HOMCHICKN and is an actual account, but the email stated 100% positive feedback and the actual ebay homepage for this member states 92%. Be careful what you open as it looks very authentic and genuine. the message: Hello. I'm waiting to receive my package to leave feedback. I am new here and I wasn't sure if I needed to contact you or not. I just received an email from ebay and they adviced me to contact you. Tell me when the package will arrive! Please be kind! Looking forward - homchickn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
