I have gotten them from "amazon" stating "order number X was cancelled and =
please click on the below file for more information". Because I order so m=
uch on amazon, I almost thought it was real and clicked on it but then went=
to the amazon site and looked at "my open orders". It always pays to goto=
the site, not believe email.

I think it might just be coincidence. I've gotten about 10 of them and=20
haven't been to ebay or amazon in months.
Most of them have been for >60 dollar books.

I have received bogus emails from both of the above on Friday.=20
These look like I bought something that in both cases I did not buy.
The EBAY was a golf club for $887 and the Amazon was a novel for $82,
far more than I would have spent on either.
I think I looked at the novel on Amazon and I remember the golf club
came up on a search with something else on Ebay. =20
How this information could get to someone spoofing is a little
disconcerting. =20
I have changed EBAY and Paypal Passwords as instructed. =20
