I got a number of these fraud mails from a look a like e-bay and pay pal. I did not open them but I will report the next ones.

They are really good fakes.

It is also why I am not a big e-bay buyer but it is the rage of the internet. I got burned once--never twice! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Certainly, getting stiffed by a buyer or seller is a reason to reconsider using them.

But phishing is not a reason to use not e-bay or paypal. These companies are only at fault in as much as they're successful and have widely recognized names.

If I didn't do business with someone because their name was used by a phisher, I'd also not be able to go to Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Sears, Staples, Office Depot, plus many, many others that I get these emails for.
