The email I have is formatted as if it's from eBay (with all the HTML) and says it's from the seller. So then my question is, what is the seller trying to accomplish with this? Is he just hoping to get me to send him money and he'll send nothing in return?
Or, are you suggesting the email was not from the seller and was from some random scammer who got my ID from the bidding history?
