Re: phishing??

If it was from Ebay, it would be an ebay.com link, not .pro....

Have a great day.

Re: phishing??

Do not respond to any emails at all!  Go to your "my eBay" and check messages for any news there to respond to anything.

If eBay sends you a message, it will be addressed to you by full name, and will not come from a random username with a number in it; it will come from eBay and will appear in your eBay messages under "From eBay". eBay will never ask you to copy and paste something into your browser address bar -- that is something scammers often do, though.

100% fake, period. Ignore, delete and forget about it.

 

In fact, if you got this only in email, the scammers don't know if you even have an eBay account in the first place. They just send those messages out in bulk via mailing lists, and just assume that some of the recipients will be eBay users fooled into responding. That domain name you mentioned has nothing to do with eBay.
