o.verio.net...
I posted about this just the other day. Is it a new scam? I
don't know... But it has happened to me twice now in the past
week - and I had never seen it before. You get a "question"
sent to you - looking like an actual E-Bay member wants to ask
a question sort of deal. When you click on reply, it will
direct you to a screen to ask your sign in information. THIS IS
WRONG... DO NOT FALL FOR THIS.

I have items up for bid now, and I got a question asked of me
of one of those items.... When I hit reply, it took me
directly to a "response" area to type in my answer, it DID NOT
ask for my sign in information. THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE - the
Scam will ask for it. An Auto reply to a legitimate item does
not.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL.... when replying to anything. The last
time - which I posted about not too long ago, the ass hole
made it look like he was asking about a guy ripped him off,
which supposedly dealt with me. This time, they asked it I
replied to a posted item to ask a question.

I still say those ass holes ought to be shot on sight when
found. They ruin it for everyone else.
