Here is a HTML copy of the email I received. You can enter a real (or bogus) ebayID and a real (or bogus) password and it will take you to a pop-up that'll request all your financial information.

`Dear eBay User,` During our regular update and verification of the accounts, we could not verify your current information. Either your information has changed or it is incomplete. As a result, your access to bid or buy on `eBay` has been restricted. According to our site policy you will have to confirm that you are the real owner of the eBay account by log in and complete the form that will pop up or else your account will be suspended without the right to register again with eBay. After you will login please verify your information in order to complete this verification. Thank you eBay Customer Support

Sorry, the submit button doesn't appear when I copy the HTML to FR. (perhaps a security feature on FR's server?)....But the "fake" looks real and will lead you to a bogus "offical ebay looking page" asking for all your financial information.
