i dont have much time but feel the need to comment on this! Barry, as you know i would never recomend ebay and rarely praise them but this thread is a bit harsh!

Phishing is a common problem over the entire internet, it is not just ebay, i have recently had to change my shop software as there is now a phishing program for OS commerce! Myspace has also been hit badly!

Saying ebay wont do anything about it is a bit unfair as there is very little they can actually do other than warn their users and recomend brower upgrades!

For example i could setup a phishing page for scale-models and quite quickly gain a list of usernames and passwords, if one of those happened to be a high level account (ie:admin) then i could do even more damage!
