received an spoofed/fake email with topic "eBay Bid Change Notice"
Dear eBay Community Member,
A previously entered bid on your item (120569091706) has been retracted or cancelled.
You can view the retraction/cancellation and the reason provided by selecting the (bid history) link from the ndividual item page.
As a result of this retraction/cancellation, there is a possibility that the high bid amount and the current high bidder have changed.
You can always view the current status of any item by going to the individual item page. (Be sure to refresh or reload the page to view the most up-to-date information.)
Regards,
eBay
item number shown doesnt match the one in hyperlink
what make this so diffrent is, it point you to valid ebay server vi.sandbox.ebaydesc.com but it has iframe which brings up fake ebay login page, looks like their found exploit to inject string.fromCharCode
gotta wait til ebay response team are there to get this phishing item removed
if you get email like one stated aboved dont click it.

There is some terrible spelling in that and words that don't make sense.
Wouldn't fool me, would need to try harder

Sending ebay an alert to let them know that there are ebay scam emails?
Better get working through my junk mail, loads of companies I'll have to alert.
