My only contact for purchases with them was in buying a chess set several years ago...bought and paid for...Nothing else! When trying to contact ebay, I received NO response from them. Who do you trust to give your account number to these days?

No matter what I mention in a 'private' email, I will have that subject in my spam folder starting from the moment I hit SEND.

Yes, I've scanned my computer for spyware and viruses.

I have a severe congenital medical condition that has worsened as I've gotten older. Needless to say the symptoms are multifaceted and complex.

Nothing like opening your spam folder to see 20 different ways to end constipation or find 30 different ways to score Morphine. (which I've been on legally for over 2 years)
I go to a REAL doctor for my prescriptions and would NEVER try to get my meds from any other source........but nevertheless, my spam box will show 20+ spam emails each and every single time I check my mail. (which is several times a day)

Its ridiculous. I'm about ready to stop AOL altogether. I've had it.]]>Nov 30th 2007 1:48PMhttp://www.switched.com/2007/09/11/study-claims-83-of-all-e-mail-is-spam/http://www.switched.com/2007/09/11/study-claims-83-of-all-e-mail-is-spam/
Any time you find an email saying your account needs to be updated go directly to your EBAY account. (same with PayPal)

Forward all spam ebay emails to spoof@ebay.com
Not sure where to send them to PayPal.

I shudder to think how many people actually fall for the scam and click on the links in those spam emails.
At least you knew to go directly to ebay to log onto your account.
