Analysis: Look closely at the top of this scam
letter.. IT SAYS "Your
registered name is included "
and unless these guys are psychic YOUR registered user name is NOT
on this letter. This is your first clue that this is a scam letter.
NO WHERE on this letter is any information relevant to you
displayed. NOTHING personal and even if it was, the look at the
links... The numbered link is actually OR was an FTP which stands
for File Transfer Protocol.. I think this means that if you click on
the link files from your computer will be transferred. I
removed the link in order to prevent you from clicking on it
inadvertently. Actually every link on the email was an FTP:// link.
This particular email is VERY dangerous. I have not in the past seen
an FTP link. Be very careful if you have had this email and clicked
on a link. An FTP site is a File Transfer link for websites..
NORMALLY this is so you can transfer information to a website you
own, however in this instance it may be for malicious reason.

This email is a bit
scary. The links all go to an FTP address and again that stands for
File Transfer Protocol for adding information or transferring
files to a website address.. this means that if you click on it that
you may be transferring files to this Scammer that contain financial
information. Return-Path: <aw-confirm@eBay.com>
