slide_advantage_redoux Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) Signing into Ebay this morning I was greeted by this page. -------------> Enter your information We have noticed an increasing fraudulent activity recently.

Note the bad grammar: "Please enter as more information as possible to provide your complete identification and to activate all the features of the new system" WTF? "Please enter as more information..." There is no way in hell I provide my SS# on a page that looks like this. Plus, they ask for the account pin #? Uh huh. I have seen spoof Ebay pages that you link to (which is the dead giveaway that it is a spoof), but on this one, I was directed to it from Ebay's main page. Hmmmmm Any thoughts? I have three things selling now and I need to get signed in. Edited January 30, 2010 by slide_advantage_redoux Quote
