BEWARE ebay scam

Apologies if this an old one but have just received a message apparently from ebay about not having paid for something I haven't ordered. When I click on the sellers link I get a registration form asking for all kinds of personal info like email address and email password. The layout is a dead ringer for the ebay site but obviously a clone.

    I got one yesterday too. I sent it straight to Spoof at Ebay who confirmed it was not from Ebay. Never click on any emails you get like that instead open up a separate page and go on to your Ebay. If you have a genuine message from Ebay it will be there.
