I've been away for awhile. I'm getting email from eBay stating that I have been selected for a security check and that my account may "behave unnormally". Looks like an eBay site but I'm reluctant to enter my username and password. Any one have experience with this?

unnormally is not in the dictionary.

Ebay will never, ever ask you for your ID/PW in an email.

Don't do it - it's a scam to wreck havoc on your ebay account.

Forward to [email protected]. Let them deal with it, they've seen many others like the one you got.

Thanks folks, I guessed it was a phony and forwarded it to spoof as you suggested. I got really suspicious with the "unnormally" part.
