Nasty EBAY hack!
Go to Ebay ans search for "2006 Toyota Highlander". Interesting pics! But if you click on them it takes
you to a spoof web page, DO NOT ENTER YOUR EBAY ID AND PASSWORD!
Have reported this so should be gone soon I hope, but there seems to be a very nasty hole in ebays security.
[EDIT]
Looks like it's been pulled. If you are desperate to see it I took some screen dumps. NOT WORK SAFE
Search results
Note correctly formed ebay URL in status bar of browser
And the other auction
Spoof password page, note the URL in address bar!

Yes that was quick, someone else must have reported it before me as they don't usualy move that fast IME.
Was a clever hack as putting up porn as an auction pic is bound to get a lot of clicks.

I have seen some with porn as the pic before. Iv just admired the pic and moved on. Never thought it might be a dodgey.

Heard a rummor that a few cars with bargain 'buy it now prices' follow the same line.
same story take you to a password Phishing site.
Got to keep your whits about you more reason not to go on ebay while under the influence.

That's a very clever scam, but I'm pretty sure it's not what I was seeing, for a start this one works on the ebay.com domain only, I
was using ebay.co.uk. Worth a check of the hosts files though!
