It says to click on the "link" to assess shipping information. Security says this is an attempted virus attack. Says it's attempting to install a virus on your computer (and others) entering your computer thru one of the Microsoft back doors (that they have for their snooping reasons....copying their software) and security says that there is no current fix. When one is available we (the employees of my company) will be notified. We are told that if you open the "link" you'll get the virus and send it to everyone in your address book. Security does not send out hoaxes. I know lots of folks here shop ebay and I know that one of the payment methods for ebay is paypal. Heads up. I don't want you infecting your computer and sending the virus to me. Mark This is not a joke.
