I received this email and I copied it to eBay, but they need the "source." How do you find the source of this email? And did anyone else get this email? (Of course, information was requested regarding all of my eBay data including credit card.)

Hi,

They're looking for the info in the header.

It's better to forward the email, rather than copy it to eBay. Then they can get the info they need.

Hope this helps.

Lucy

I have gotten about a zillion of those emails and they are BOGUS! Simply forward (not copy) and send to [email protected] will get the headers when you forward but not when you copy
