By the way.....I haven't actually bid on anything

There seem to be various fraudsters sending out these types of messages lately, someone else posted a similar message last week. Some insufficiently_thoughtful_person just wants to get your real email address so they can send you endless streams of junk.

Press the DELETE key upon receipt.

Oh Boy!! An email through Ebay! Your good fortune is beyond comprehension!

And just look at all those tally/chicken scratches!!! Don't forget to SAVE THEM! You can convert them into points, to trade in for sexual favors at an Ebay redemption center somewhere in the near future! Yes! It's true! In an effort to bolster business Ebay is distributing a set amount of these emails with coupon redemption points good for services rendered at an Ebay affiliated "Frank's Chicken Ranch" near you. As a Platinum Power Seller, I received the notification of this new promotion a few days ago!! See ya' at Frank's!!!!

I got this email today. Has anyone reported this bozo to eBay? There seems to be a big anti-spam notice at the bottom of the message.

Anybody got a guess as to what this guy's scam might be? Looks to me like he's just trying to get you to reply so he can get your direct e-mail address, which was enough for me not to reply. Seems like the real scam would have to be something he does as a follow-up to the reply.
