What did you do about it?

Report it to the real Safeharbor. Go through the right eBay channels, but do not click on the link in the e-mail.

You should forward the email to "spoof@ebay.com", and they'll investigate it (and probably shut down the link). I have the eBay toolbar, which allows you to report suspicious sites to eBay, so I click on the link, then report the site.
