Yes, but as it is in My Messages through the ebay system and addresses me by name, I was assuming it was genuine. Haven't clicked on any links yet, though.

Hi K

Yes there is so many emails that look so genuine it is easy to see why newbies fall for them.

But thanks to those like you that warn others one can only hope it stops others from clicking on any links in those emails. 🙂
