This is what's called "phishing", where a legit-looking email
actually links to a bogus server set up to harvest your private
information.
It's also one of the reasons why I hate html email with a passion.
My mail client will show it as text, so I can see right away that the
actual link behind the tag points to a suspicious URL or simply an IP
address.
I love it when I get them with spelling errors, bad grammar, or to an
address that has nothing to do with my ebay or paypal account.
Delete it and any that you get that are similar, and don't think
twice.
