I just received an email that looks like it is from ebay. It says that I will not be allowed to use ebay until I update certain info. Info includes SS#, credit card info, and bank pin. I wonder if anybody would give this info, but you never know. Thought I would pass it on. Vinny |

Way too many people give such information readily to these phishers. Delete, delete, delete. |

Also, before you delete,forward the bogus email to spoof@ebay.com. I get this spoof weekly and continue to forward them. I am sure someone, somewhere answer which is why they continue to send them out. BTW, often they have attachments that are executable and carry viruses. Be care, don't open, forward and then delete.
