I got a cute one the other day:
It was a 2nd chance offer for a corvette ($1900.00). LOL, like I'm gonna fall for that.
Sure enough, it was a spoof.
I have gotten several ebay phishes that represent themselves as ebay prizes - usually cars. The one I found most convincing was one I get regularly that says ebay is trying to confirm if I logged into my account and tried to change my email address.
As far as using ebay, someone could scam me for several thousand dollars and I would still be ahead.
I buy hair dye, dog supplies, avon - many, many things are a better buy on ebay, evan including shipping. I found books an especially good buy.
I rarely take big risks. I once bought a car, did good, but went to check out the car before I bid. I've seen a few car scams on ebay.
