'Join our Mailing List' texts, spam or legit?
I have received a text from eBay to Join our Mailing List and get a $10 voucher. The problem is though, in this day and age, I don't trust any links in unsolicited texts and it's not as easy to hover and check a text link as it is an emailed link.
Question: Is it legit or a scam?
Comment: I'm not opposed to joining lists and getting vouchers but I'd prefer these offers came through the ebay message inbox.

·3 years agowas it from ebay OR from a seller on this site?
As a seller, I get to see the phone number of anyone who buys from me

·3 years agoI have occasionally received such emails from sellers from whom I had bought something. They seemed to have my email address and sent the request from their website rather than eBay.
Apparently it is possible to find the email address of a buyer who has actually bought from you, but only if the buyer has bought from you.

If it were from eBay, you would see the message in your eBay inbox.
