Received via e-mail. The message claims that "due to recent activity, including possible unauthorized listing placed on your account, we will require a second confirmation of your identity with us in order to allow us to investigate this matter further. Your account is not suspended, but if in 48 hours after you receive this message your account is not confirmed we reserve the right to suspend your eBay registration."Later they give a link under which they say, "eBay will request personal data (password, credit card/bank numbers, and so on) in this email."
I have never bought or sold anything on eBay and don't have an account with them. Is this message legit or an invitation to identity theft. Anybody else get one like this?
