Most certainly a scam, you could always type Ebay.com into your browser and go and update your CC info that way, if you want to make sure its updated. However clicking the link in that email and entering your credit card info is like begging to be scammed.

 

[GT Web]

I clicked on the link and it appears to be legit, but I dont believe Ebay sends emails like that threatening action if you dont update your info...

also, there seem to be grammitical mistakes in the email...be cautious

according to this tool: http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm?GetLocation

it appears to come from New Jersey

regardless of where it is from, DO NOT GO THERE! Dont ever click on one of these... never ever bro.

if you question its validity, type in ebay.com on your toolbar yourself and login. I wont even click ebay links here unless I trust the poster here. you just never ever know man.

Be safe.

well Hippo, this is whats called Phishing. they send you fake emails in hopes youll click the links and type in your log in information so they can steal from you.

 

[True_Snake]

Yup, it's a scam. Don't fall for it. Maybe contact eBay and ask them if they sent any such E-Mail.

Just my suggestion.
