This one just about got me. The links looked offical. It even had the offical looking ebay ribbon banner in the email. I came close to clicking, but resisted the urge and instead logged onto my ebay account with no issues.
Had I clicked the link I'm sure they would have stolen my ebay ID and had my password as i would have been asked to log in. Be careful out there.
I disabled the links below by adding an extra h to http ......otherwise they would have worked and someone here might have clicked them. Please do not click the links or take off the extra h.
