One of the giveaways was that it didn't have the little "padlock" icon in the corner. However, I responded to it anyhow, giving it just a bunch of bullshit info, including "Fuckyouasshole" as my account name and password, which it accepted. Then I called eBay to report it. Midnite, what number do you call? I rarely have trouble getting through to eBay. I NEVER do any eBay or PayPal account updates online without a rep on the phone with me. In fact, some updates you can do simply over the phone, so you know they're legit.
