An html attachment named Informations.html was also present, when opened this takes you to the default ebay sign in screen, well so you think. I didn't log in but assuming i did my account details would have been no doubt logged and sent to the creator of this scam.
The reasoning behind all this is unsure to me, as they couldn't gain access to credit card details but I'm assuming they would use these account to create bogus auctions ripping peeps off and laying the blame on the actual account holders.
Well yous have been warned... Spread the word..
