Scammers will try everything and as I know a client has previously been a victim of a eBay scam I thought it best to publish this one.

If you look properly at the email header you will see the message is from e-Buy.co.uk , if you click on the link in the email it will take you to a page the looks just like ebay and invites you to log into your account. Do not enter your ebay account details into this site. This is not related to ebay in any way and will give thieves access to your account. The website address is in fact www. eaay.co.uk

Be aware do not respond to these emails.
