Warning: eBay Spoof Emails

I'll take a break from SEO talk to warn people about spoof emails from eBay, or from any other place where you have financial information.

Briefly, these spoofers will send an email that looks to be from eBay.com, and they'll say your account has been suspended, or offer some other excuse for verifying your account information, and they'll give you a link to click on so you can give them you credit card number, and possibly even your Social Security number. I don't know what all they ask for, because I've never clicked on that, but just be very wary of emails that are asking for sensitive information. And by being wary, I mean delete them before you even open them, if that's possible.
