Got this email today, with all the formating looked like it came right from Meg's Desk! LOL! I wonder if Ms. Meg ever goes out, tracks these miscreants down and smacks the hell out of these idiots!
Dear eBay User,

According to our site policy you will have to confirm that you are the real owner of the eBay account by log in and complete the form that will pop up or else your account will be suspended without the right to register again with eBay.
After you will login please verify your information in order to complete this verification.

Pay attention to the fear they are addressing, "...suspended without the right to register again with eBay."
The regal 'they' at eBay at anytime can decide you are guilty and then YOU have to prove you are innocent.
A third-party co-opting one of 'their' control methods for personal gain. Excuse me while I laugh until a portion of my anatomy gives way to gravity.

Fill in the info with bogus info. If more people fill in the spams with garb, eventually the scammers will move on.

I got one for my buyer account. Trouble is it was not even complete. It said account verification and had a couple ebay graphics. No other body text.
