I just received a call supposedly from Ebay. The woman said that a $500 gift card had been purchased in California - was this me and when was the last time I used Ebay (said I didn't remember and have been overseas for a month anyway). She gave me her supposed ebay ID and the call came from a mobile number. She said someone was using my account fraudulently, she didn't want my personal details but she seemed to be leading to something about providing me with a pin to stop the payment. I saw red flags (like a reverse payment that scammers use on Facebook) and said I didn't trust her so hung up. But she rang me back straight away still trying to convince me (desparate or what?!). I have no suspicious transactions on either my bank accounts or ebay. But am really jacked off she had my phone number and other people might fall for this as you are speaking to a real person.
