You've received a question about eBay item: HP COMPAQ N400C LAPTOP 850MHZ 256MB 20GB CD WINDOWS.. (160246121318)

Another Ebay one, trying to convince the recipient that you have been bidding on a laptop that you didn't really want... For this one the destination URL is http://4u2gifts.com/eindex.htm?ViewItem&item=160246121318&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:GB:1123.4www.u2gifts.com looks like a respectable website that has been 'invaded' by the phishers - there are other phishing reports dating back to at least 1st June on Google. So I suspect someone has guessed their ftp passwords...

Here's the email content:
