Posted By: <b>TBob</b><p>I don't know if it is from a disgruntled loser in ebay auctions or just someone who prowls around the vintage card section but both my user ids got it. <BR>Tom is right DO NOT CLICK on this scam and submit your password. I hope they catch this bast**d and arrest him. But don't hold your breath, eBay is more concerned with making sure sellers get their items in the right categories than protecting their customers.
