SPAM emails of supposed 'recently viewed items'

[5kazam]

Anyone else receiving spam emails of supposed recently viewed items.  The two I've received so far are purportedly 'UK auction Chinese'.

At 65 and a grandmother, I hardly think I would be looking for a 'Manual Breast Pump', and today's is for 'Phillips Restronic CPAP Medium Wide Mask and Headband (a steal at $285).

My Christian name is on them, but not my surname, or my user id.  

Naturally I have deleted them without clicking on any links.

Are you receiving emails, eBay messages, or ads?

If they are emails just mark them as spam before you delete them, there's been a lot lately.

If they're eBay ads there's nothing that can be done except ignore them.

If they are pop up ads scan your computer for malware and viruses.

Definitely emails.  Not messages - nothing in my eBay inbox.  And no, not ads.

I hadn't thought/remembered to mark them as spam before deleting, but will if I receive any more.

My computer was scanned yesterday - nothing there.

I decided to do another scan - to be on the safe side.

Malwarebytes didn't pick up anything, but just as it finished AVG popped up with a TROJAN threat.

So, I'm guessing that email contained a TROJAN.  Big warning for anyone who gets those emails.

Hi 5kazam

Another cause might be that someone has gained access to your account and has viewed those items which is why you are getting those alerts.

The painful option after doing all your scans is to change your passwords and be especially vigilant.

I hope everything works out for you!
