Yep, same as everyone else has stated, I received a scam e-mail falsely claiming to be from eBay which requested I call this number.

Avoid and do not call!

thank you and yes I received the same email and tried to call the number but no-one answers. I don't even have an EBAY account however they may have obtained my email address from the latest Optus scam

Scam email supposedly from eBay cyber security saying fraudulent transaction to avast antivirus and to call number to cancel transaction. Source email and English grammar dodgy for a start

Caller: Got email from"eBay security"

Received an email to call this number ( EBAY customer support ) for suspicious payment for AVAST protection.
Checked my eBay account under messages to find it is not there.

This is a scam. Ignore the email

I got the same email and thanks to this info have deleted it!

Received the same on 12 Oct 22

Surely it doesn't take that long to shut down one of these numbers?

Scammer - Got the same email. The email address gave it away: harryandy301 @ gmail.com

Caller: Ebayeom_Support

Received an email from terrafrias6 @ gmail.com pretending to be from E-Bay (see fake ID above) about a suspicious transaction for $449 for AVAST security. This is a scam email, do not call the number. Pls note that the email address is Spanish for "cold earth" which should be a warning!

Caller: SCAM - Claiming to be eBay Customer Support

Received an email to call this number ( claiming to be EBAY customer support ) for suspicious payment for AVAST protection.

Amusingly, the email was sent from what looks like someone's personal gmail account.

Caller: Ebay Security

I am so over this. Telstra reckon they grab milllions of these. Penalties are not severe enough
