New phish looks like a LEGIT ebay messege from another user

"I'm still waiting payment for my item for about 1 week. What happened? Please mail me ASAP or I will report you to ebay."

Only one link doesn't point back to ebay site, of course its the "Respond Now" button.
Be on the lookout!

Not really new unfortunately. I've seen those for a good 3 months.

The rule of thumb for eBay is eBay messages will address you by full name and your eBay id, ie Dear Joe Smith (widgetseller123).

They will not contain a link to click on, but say "Open a web browser, go to ebay.com , log in, go to my messages.

As to why (ref: your followup), it has two different seller ID's?

Spammer stupidity?

I saw a bank phish from "Bank A Customer Service <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

Dear Bank A Customer:

Here at Bank B, we take your business seriously...."

Yeahhhhhhh
