These people are good. Although, poor spelling is a dead giveaway. But really, this is good. It even opens up a real ebay page when you click on it.

The page may look real, but read the address at the top. I would bet it doesnt even have ebay in it. That is how they get your username and password to pull off other scams. Like trying to sell 50" Plasma screens for $2000.00. All you have to do is send them the money through Western Union and they will ship it right off to you from Spain or Italy or someplace like that. Once you do it, they have your money and you have no recourse what so ever. Never use Western union to send money to someone you do not know. It is not recoverable.
