Guest guest Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Namaste Braulio, The link you posted here is a Fake Site impersonating Ebay. It is also what is called "Spoof Site". For Ebay newbies, please be cautious that you don't log in or sign up on Fake Sites. Please have a look at the following url with relevant information: 1) http://pages.ebay.com.au/securitycentre/mrkt_safety.html#spoof Spoof Protection Stay safe online by protecting yourself from spoof (fake) emails and Web sites. Spoof emails and Web sites can be a major problem for unsuspecting Internet users. Claiming to be sent by a well-known company, spoof email directs users to Web sites asking for personal information such as a credit card number, account password or other personal information. Because it's so difficult to tell when an email or Web site is a spoof, eBay recommends that you: Download and use eBay Toolbar with Account Guard, a feature that indicates whether you are on the real eBay or PayPal Web sites, or are on a potential spoof site. Learn about spoof protection by taking eBay's spoof tutorial. Never enter sensitive personal information (such as your password or credit card, bank account, or other personal identifying information) in an email. ................
