They call this practice "phishing". I get them too, to my works email account which eBay don't even know about!
The "Dear eBay Member" gives it away, and the inevitable howling mistakes in the English. Any eBay comm. to you would have your eBay title in the message.
If they send this mailshot out to a million email addresses, chances are many of the "mugs" out there will reply and submit their eBay account details.

>I keep geting lots of spams. F.ex. lots from member.eBay etc. Then I wanted to report to eBay for that spam. BUT no luck. Spam is about my bet, I have won some item but not payed, and I have even ever entered to the eBay. Then I want to report of spam but I can't do that because I'm not registered member and I can't register because there is no eBay in Finland and there is no option to register in other countries as a finnish citizen. Should I ignore OR shoud I assail Interpol or what I should do? Any similiar things?
