Latest Ebay/Paypal scam?
Got the email below this morning:-
Hello PayPal Customer,
You sent a payment of £18.00 GBP to Skype (billing@skype.net)
If you haven't authorized this charge, please cancel the payment and get a full refund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Merchant
Skype
billing@skype.net
Instructions to merchant
You haven't entered any instructions.
Description Unit price Qty Amount
Online Number, 3 month subscription
Item# £18.00 GBP 1 £18.00 GBP
Subtotal £18.00 GBP
Total £18.00 GBP
Payment £18.00 GBP
Payment sent to billing@skype.net
Now, surprise, surprise, but when i checked my Paypal a/c there wasn't a payment to Skype after all (Shock, Horror! ). However I assume had i
tried to claim the dough back that would have involved me entering my Paypal details & thus giving these b*stards access - I'm sure no one
on here would be daft enough to believe it but just thought I'd pass it on!
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

I hope you didnt follow the link on their email? This is how they capture your information then hijack your account.
Look carefully at the senders email address, ill bet its very similar but different to paypals.
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

Mummy Scootz had a call from her CC company this week... someone was creaming a couple of quid from loads of accounts in the hope that no-one would
notice. Obviously someone did!
It's Evolution Baby!
