I know lots of you are using ebay to sell - watch out for an email from
"billing@ebay.com" that says they need you to resubmit your personal
info.
They will direct you to a site called www.ebay-updates.com

I ran a "whois" on this domain. It is not owned by ebay. It is a scam to
harvest credit card numbers and bank account info.

The email reads as follows:

***************
