364390 2005-06-16 10:34:00 Hey,
I went to the eBay site to tell them about a fake email i got sent, saying that my account has been disabled....but i never had an account, so i found the right place, but to send anything i need an account! I dont want to make one just for that. Is there any other way to get hold of them?

364395 2005-06-16 13:32:00 I found Ebay has a contact system which doesn't need an account by following johnboy's 2nd link (Enjoyed the 1st option - but a bit slow...)

You have to keep making choices until you end up with an email address to forward the fake email to.
It's quite a nifty system, I thought, as it covers lots of situations, but you have to start right.

Begin by clicking the 5th choice in the first box - then just keep going...

364396 2005-06-16 13:33:00 P.S. Forgot to say I did it on Firefox - so your browser's not the problem. Laura (43)
364397 2005-06-16 14:30:00 I would say give up, they probably already know about the fake emails being sent around.

It's kinda like your anti-virus program finding a known virus, then feeling the need to email all the security companies about it. If it was an unknown file doing damage, then sure use the submit file function, but otherwise there's no point.
