So I received an e-mail that was sent to me yesterday, stating that my eBay account has been suspended due to my credit/debit card company being unable to verify my registration info on file.
I'm assuming it's a fake e-mail because the e-mail address is ukrswebhelp@ebay.com.au and the fact that I'm still currently being allowed to log into my account and use it, a day after the e-mail was actually sent to me (had no idea about it until just now when I checked).
Anyways, here's the e-mail (are my suspcions about it not having been sent from eBay correct?)
eBay Account ID: E87082486-AUD
