There are eMail addresses for both paypal, and eBay for this stuff,

good ...
>In fact, both eBay and PayPal (owned by eBay) have acknowledged
>significant security problems with "phishing" scams. Ususally, the
>perpetrators of these scams will state in an email that there is a
>security or other problem and will ask unsuspecting potential
>victims to click on a link to an official looking bogus webpage that
>will ask for your eBay or PayPal id and password.
