A scammer tried to hook me today with a trick I had not seen before. I was selling a plow that was ending tonight, and I recieved a message through ebay from a guy that said he was interested in my "item", but he had seen an identical item for sale and he was confused. He posted a link to that item so I could check it out. When I clicked on the link, the Ebay sign-on page came up. Since I was already signed in, that seemed strange. I made sure I was signed in, and hit the link again- same thing. I guess he wanted my user name and password so possibly he could collect my money from the sale? I don"t know, but I responded by saying "nice try", and congratulated him on a well thought out scam. I also told him I would report him to Ebay, but it probably won"t do any good. Either way, I was reminded to be carefull, and change my password often.
