    That's another example of Phishing...
    One fake email asks you to re-enter your ebay account ID and password to "validate records". Then the people use that information to post fradulent/non-existent items for sale like jet skis, digital cameras... that kind of thing using the other persons ID. I guess it must work some of the time...
