just got this email from ebay
Unauthorized Account Access
We recently reviewed your account, and we suspect an unauthorized ATM based transaction on your account. Therefore as a preventive measure we have temporary limited your access to sensitive features.
it says click on the link below, when i put the cursor on it, it shows the link as www.superhotbikerbabes.com or somthing like that, clicked on it then it goes into the sign in screen.
Anyone else had this before and should i take note or just delete it ?

You already know you should delete it. Don't worry.

always a scam, you can check by viewing the source of the email, if the link code contains some dodgy ip address then its a hoax, i did a ripe trace on one a while back and traced it to some dodgy russion isp, i emailed them the IP address and told them to ban whoever was using it

Why even bother going to that extent? Just delete the email and log into ebay. If there's a problem, ebay will tell you when you log in.
