You are viewing an Email identified as a Scam, It has the Subject
"Dear eBay Customer," and it was received in one of Scamdex's honeypot email accounts on
Mon, 21 Jan 2008 08:18:40 -0800 and has been classified as a Generic Scam.
The sender was "eBay Team"<ebay-center@e-bay.com>, although that address was probably spoofed. It is recommended that you do not attempt to contact any persons or organizations referenced in this email, as you will expose yourself to scammers and, at the very least, you will be added to their
email address lists for spam purposes.

It has come to our attention that your eBay
account information needs to be
updated as part of our continuing commitment to
protect your account and to
reduce the instance of fraud on our website. If you
could please take 5-10 minutes
out of your online experience and update your
personal records you will not run into
any future problems with the online
service.
However, failure to update your records will result
in account suspension.
Please update your records on or before
January 21-24, 2008.
Once you have updated your account records, your
eBay session will not be
interrupted and will continue as normal.
Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
