The answer is never to log into any website via a link in an e-mail, take yourself to it and log into your account in the normal way. I get dozens of messages like this every day 'from' Paypal, Ebay, every bank under the sun and the ones saying I have milllions waiting for me in an account !!!
Been nice knowing you :)

Yes Ive been having these Ebay ones and Paypal ones for quite a while. The thing now is to do as Scotchie says there and ignore everything. yes the Nigerians were avid senders out of the " we have millions waiting for you" ones...they invented the wheel on that one.

There does seem to have been a bit of an increase in them this last month.

They don't seem to have targetted me much lately, perhaps they've realised I don't have any money!
