  Subject: [access-uk] Email Received from Ebay


  I have received this Email from eBay today and am not sure whether or not it 
is a hoax.  Has anyone else received anything similar?  I am reluctant to click 
on the link for obvious reasons.  The Email was received from 
aw-confirm@xxxxxxxxx

  I have pasted the text of the Email below.
