I've been getting this letter persistently for the last month. I have been ignoring it most of the time due to my schedule. This morning I received another one and decided to act on it to make sure my account does not get suspended for not activating it.
I clicked on the link and it led me to what looks like the signon screen of ebay. I entered my username and password and it led me to a page where they ask ALL of my credit card information including the three digit on the back crucial for online transactions!
I immediately realize that this is a bogus email!.
Logged off and logged on to ebay.com and immediately changed my password. ALso sent the Ebay a copy of this email to [email protected].
