Oh no! My eBay account has a boo-boo! I better get my account restored RIGHT NOW!

Oh, wait a minute, that link goes to ejbay.co.uk, not ebay.com!!


Dear eBay customer,

During our regularly schedule account maintenance and verification we have detected a slight error in your billing information on file with us.

This might be due to either following reasons:

- A recent change in your personal information (i.e. change of address)

- An inability to accurately verify your selected option of payment due an internal error within our processors. We need you to confirm your identity in order to regain full privileges of your account.

If this is not completed by June 13 , 2008, we reserve the right to terminate all privileges of your account indefinitly, as it may have been used for fraudulent purposes.

We thank you for your prompt attention to this matter and regret any
inconvenience this may cause.

eBay Global Collections

Oh, and spell check says that indefinitly should be spelled indefinitely.

But you DID spell fraudulent correctly, I guess!

MRS. SUSAN WHILE.

Hasn't anyone ever told Lindsday/Susan (What's up with THAT?) that typing in all caps is rude? A couple of questions come to mind: I wonder why a dying cancer patient is in a maternity hospital. How can one spell deteriorating correctly and mispel Christian?

I wonder if I could start a consulting business with these folks as clients, helping them with their grammar, spelling, spacing...

Later!
