Has anyone else gotten an e-mail with a return address of "[email protected]" and a title of "A Special Powful Tool"? The body of the e-mail reads: "This is a special powful tool. I wish you would enjoy it." No attachments or signature. It was obviously posted by an incredibly bad speller or someone for whom English is not their first language. What is weird is that it came to my secondary e-mail address, not the one eBay has on file currently. I forwarded it to Safe Harbor.

Also make sure that you have your latest updates for your virus protection as there are a lot of new viruses in the last couple of weeks.

Yes, it's spam. I've received similar emails from the same bunch every so often for the last couple of years.
Did you ever have this secondary email addy with eBay? With me I had one addy several years ago registered with eBay (changed it to my current addy) and that's the one that gets the spam.
I don't bother forwarding it to SafeHarbor. I just delete from my mail list. I used to but it didn't do much good. I don't even click onto emails that I don't recognize.
