Hey To All ?

I received this suspicious eBay email today from this url

Chip,
That is a definite scam email. Hope you turned it into eBay and the FTC Smile

I received the same e-mail the other day. I went to the Ebay web site and reported it there, they wanted me to copy and paste the full e-mail headers. They replied back that it was definately a scam and they were checking into it.
