After I reported the site to eBay, AntiPhishing.org, and the abuse contact at their ISP, looks like it got taken down...haha.

ive been receiving a weird new approach recently.. here's the copied text from the forum i posted it on:

--------------------------

ive been getting this fairly recently and havent heard anyone else talk about it, so i thought id give a heads up.

the first one of these i got, i was almost fooled. it looks EXACTLY like a "ask the seller a question" emails you'd get if you were selling something.



i think ive received about 5 of these now in a few weeks, all from "minidigitalis". the first thing i did was check the auction ID number... it was legit (though it isnt anymore, yet i still get these emails about this same item, ha). i then was a little concerned that maybe someone had put my email address as the contact, so they could scam the person out of their item (in this case, a computer). but, their email address was definitely not mine.

i moused over the links. all of them were legit... EXCEPT ONE, which ultimately tipped me off. in this case, it was the top most "learn more" link, which led to some other weird site. the other way they fucked up is that the email subject says its from "digitalis" while the member id in the email is "minidigitalis". honestly, i have no idea what this scam is even trying to do... but clearly its up to something.

i just noticed that now, even that "learn more" link appears to lead to a legitimate page.. so they must have caught on to their mistake.

so yeah. not sure what it's trying to accomplish, but almost fooled me. be careful if you see one of these.

conspiracy!

lol, any email asking you to click a link is not good. Never click em :P



unless you fill em out with aplz info.

if you do get caught - your course of action should be (I know of someone who reponded to the request for info one):

log into ebay and change your password ASAP - to something completely different.

email the ebay fraud department (via their website) they will monitor your account, and check for fraudulent activity.

pray.

You're not alone, I get those all the time too...and I am an eBay seller, so the first time I got one, I was like, WTF? I don't have that item for sale? Took me about 20 seconds to realize it was a phishing email.
