i just got a new scam in the mail - just now:

Dear Valued Customer:

You were the high bidder on eBay item #701511790,
"18K ITALIAN BYZANTINE FRENCH CLASP NECKLACE."
This email is to notify you that the seller of this
item, [email protected], has requested a credit
for the final value fee ("FVF"), indicating that
payment has not been received for this item.

As a result of this seller's FVF credit request
(Non-Paying Bidder claim), you are receiving your
first Non-Paying Bidder("NPB") Warning. If you
receive a 3rd NPB Warning, your account will be
suspended indefinitely.

As our User Agreement explains, if you are the high
bidder on any item, you are expected to honor your
bid and are obligated to complete the transaction.
Our Non-Paying Bidder Policy exists to help us enforce
our User Agreement with respect to non-paying bidders.
For details about eBay's NPB Policy, go to:

If you believe you have received this NPB Warning in
error, please review the Non-Paying Bidder appeals
instructions within our online Help desk at:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/appeal-npb.html

If this transaction has been completed, please ask the
seller to contact us, using the NPB Warning Removal form,
located at:
