The same thing is done with Ebay and Paypal as well. Good lookin out bro. Anytime I get an email like that I close it and go directly to the real website and log in from there. This way if the message is real it will be on that site.

Make sure when you get the Ebay types that you "forward" the email to [email protected] for evaluation, and then delete.
