this is a spoof. Everyone's getting them, sometimes dozens daily. Don't sign in from ANY emails. Ebay will NOT ask you to sign in. Any confusion you have, go to www.ebay.com and THEN sign in. Do not click on any links in emails. Same thing for Paypal or ANY financial sites.

I receive this notice every day. Two years ago I got something similar and responded and in a matter of a week I lost 20K out of my bank account. Of course I reported it to my local sheriff's office, bank, and eventually the feds. I did get some relief from my bank, but man what a learning experience.
