DOES THIS SOUBD LIKE SOMEONE'S TRYING TO EFF ME OVER

[carbed87]

someone sent me this not in my ebay account, but in my email:

Hi,

This is exactly what I`m looking for. I have all the necessary funds available. How would like to be payed? I`m hidding my email for privacy, you can reply using the yellow button. I`m looking to close a deal soon, so a quick reply will be welcomed. Looking forward to hear from you...

Regards,
Mike

and i went to hit reply to tell him that if he liked it, then he should bid, but when i clicked on it, it brung up ebay's log in screen, which made no sence at all cause i logged in like 30 seconds ago, and it always remembers my username, so i chose not to reply just in case it was a scam...what do you think.

They send you that link to make you THINK you are logging in, but it's a fake link and they steal your username and passwoord when you click on submit.

If ebay sends you an email it will ALWAYS address you by your name and it will NEVER ask you to log in via an email.
