Thought it was odd, because I'm already a powerseller. Clicked the link, it's a spoof site with some strange, unmasked address. Don't sign in if you get one of these. Or if you do, forward the message to [email protected] before signing in - they'll reply in 24-48 hours to let you know if it's real or not.
