The words in bold appeared when I copied it. I think this is a scam because I can still bid on ebay. I clicked the link and it took me to a screen that asked for ALL my passwords and account numbers and even my ATM pin. WTF? This can't be right? I seen something like this before about scammers doing ---- like this. I can't believe this.

Yeah, they spelled "User" wrong. I guess that was my first clue. I can't believe this. How crazy are these hackers getting? Geez. I'm going to notify ebay before someone fills that form out and gets screwed. I wonder how many people have filled it out?

I just looked on ebay and I guess they already know all about this. You would think those dumbass mother ******* would warn everybody. WTF is wrong with them? How stupid are these people? They could put some sort of announcement on the main page or something, but no. They want to sit back and watch people get fucked for some reason. That really pisses me off. ---- ebay.

Tracing that ip (211.37.185.30) pointed to a Korean ISP address. The ISP Company is MacroBusiness(KolNet), located in Seoul Korea.

I can give you the ISP administration info if you want to follow it up directly.

I hate ------- spoof scamers like this. Because they're overseas and will probably just shutdown their computer and move on. On a good note, when I clicked on your link to check the scam site, I had a connect from Hackerwatch.org run by Mcafee Security, so it seems this is a known scam and being monitored.
