I've been getting quite a lot of these lately. I notified Ebay and they wrote back to forward the email to spoof@ebay.com.
Don't EVER give your information in emails like this email is requesting.

I got one a couple of days ago....when I eventually clicked it, went to "page not found" so I guess the hackers are busted.

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.

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.
