    "Unlock the power of eBay for selling luxury handbags" -- Why do I get this spam?

    Hi,

     

    Every now and then I get message from eBay (yes, it comes from eBay). Subject is "Unlock the power of eBay for selling luxury handbags" and it talks about selling those bags.

     

    We NEVER sold a bag on eBay, what is going on???

     

    Rudolf

    OK, this **bleep** is being received (and I quote eBay here):

    "The emails were about the items of other sellers who has sold their items with great selling performance."

     

    To stop receiving this sort of things, one has to disable e-mails under "Seller Performance Notifications" (don't ask why). Just disabling marketing e-mails is not enough

    Sounds like the answer is in your hands, so why do you need to ask on here.   Just disable it.  simples

    And that phrase is usually said by OP's who get a factual answer to their problem that they don't want to hear.

    Nobody has been rude

     

    Most members will provide factual answers 

     

    We leave it to eBay CS to tell people what they want to hear

    I'm guessing you would need to ask eBay

     

    I have no idea why the email me about rubbish that I have no interest in, and never bought/sold on my other account and have such spam turned off for that account 

     

    Maybe they don't know the difference between hats/belts etc and handbags

     

    Or the bots 'think' you want to branch out ?
