Hello @kreisgutshop and everyone! We currently have reports of a phishing campaign in which the invitation function for Team access at eBay is being misused.
The emails are not sent by eBay, but they do use an official eBay sender address and therefore seem especially credible. The invitation contains a link that leads to an external website where personal data is requested.
Please note:
Do not provide any personal data or bank details via links in such emails.
If you have received a suspicious email, please forward it as an attachment to: spoof@ebay.de (for eBay Germany) or spoof@ebay.com (international)
The eBay accounts for Team access that have so far been identified as being misused have already been blocked. We are continuing to monitor the situation and thank you for your caution and your attentive actions.
If you're unsure whether an email really comes from eBay, better ask once too often before clicking on links or entering data.
I hope that everyone who receives a spam email from whoever it may be recognizes such an email as spam, or that their "spam blocker" works in such a way that it is recognized as spam in the email folder and no one clicks a link in such a fake email.

·3 weeks agoThis email is definitely not from Ebay.
Take a look in the mail header, there you'll see the real sender.
