It does not appear in your eBay messages, which is a drop dead red flag, but I it looks good and I think that most, like I, work through these email notices (invoices, messages, but now NOT 2nd chance offers) through our email rather than re-accessing the message through eBay's site.. especially when doing it from a mobile device.

eBay's response was pretty weak. 2x form letters telling me this is just a spam/phish mail trying to get me to give away my login information, and that their system has not been compromised in any way. I spent an hour on the phone with them, telling them it's clear this guy is getting private information that goes above/beyond phish mass mails. I can't imagine he's hacked everyone's account and feel like he's got to be getting this information by another method... maybe akin (but much more involved) to our .ca method of seeing BIN or Best Offer purchase prices, but where he can see an auction's bidders... he then somehow gets our personal email addresses.
