I get mail 'Congratulations' your a powerseller on E-bay !?
Now I have bought , but never sold , well not yet. on E-bay . This looks like to me like dodgy mail which I have never opened. As you will know the site does include our 'name and id but this Powerseller stuff I'm not sure about as no name is on the mail I should think that this is a very common problem but getting it accross to E-bay is rather complicated so havn't bothered.

That's nothing but an outright phishing scam. Don't click on the link and give the phishers your personal information, period. Just send the email to spoof@ebay.com and wait until the eBay people get back to you to see if it has originated from them. If the email didn't come from them, just get it spammed into the garbage immediately.

If you've never sold the how can you be a Powerseller? It's a scam. It'll ask you to log in. Check the address bar. Fill the user name and password with abuse and expletives and hit ENTER.
