There is a scam where members have bought and item but the seller hasn't claimed the payment.

They then have access to the correct name/address and Email address.

The phishing attempt will follow three months down the track and they WILL use the correct name the same as eBay

and Paypal,(a link to a fake log in site will also be included).

Anyone that has clicked on a link will also need to download anti spyware such as Spybot search & destroy,

Malware bites or SuperAntiSpyware,(they all have free editions).

They should pick up any Malware or Keyloggers that may have been present in the link.
