It is almost Christmas time, so I suppose that does make Ebay a good target for those with bad intentions...This one is probably trying to make you click the link because you think you have actually bought the item (or another member of your household). Even if you haven't been bidding on an Ipod you might think you have done so by mistake.
Of course, it's all fake. You only need to put the mouse over the button to see that the target URL is nothing like PayPal or Ebay. You haven't made this purchase; you haven't made it by mistake - don't click the link.
If you have clicked the link sign onto Ebay and PayPal (type their URLs into your browser window - don't use any links), change your passwords on both and let both companies know immediately.
Here's the text of the email, click the image above to see the original.
