  1. Before replying to ANY email that appears to be from eBay, or a member of
    eBay, put the mail you were reading on the side, go to eBay directly and check
    the messages that are stored in your account. Every message that comes
    through them, even spoof responses (messages from them that are sent to you if you
    are reporting a fraudulent activity) are there.

    I have played cat and mouse a few times, just for s*&%$ & giggles, once the
    seller claimed the car was in Sicily, and I had a ball, becuse the town was
    one I had visited, and my wife is the cousin of the Senator there. I drove him
    nuts asking why I was at a certian intersection but could not find the car,
    etc.

    ah, fun times...

    The latest thing going on Ebay fraud is they ask you a question about some
    auction and it looks like its going through Ebay, They even put in a reply
    now , whatever you do dont hit the reply now. If you do your passwords and
    user names will be compromised. The way you can spot a fake is just to reply
    to the email and if an email address pops up it should be legit. Best
    advise is to never reply to the yellow reply now button
