This is nothing new. I get at least one a month. I blow them off without a
second glance. E-Bay rarely e-mails anyone UNLESS it is a special offer or
to tell you of something you're selling or bidding on. IF you're not sure,
go directly to the E-Bay site - NOT by clicking on to any links in any
suspicious e-mails you may get. C.
