What to do about spoofs

The good news about spoof emails is that you are in control - you can protect your personal and financial information by simply ignoring the spoof altogether. You should never provide contact, sign-in or other sensitive personal information in an email.

• 1Forward the message to spoof@ebay.com.au or spoof@paypal.com.au
• 2Don't alter the subject line or forward the message as an attachment - doing so prevents us from investigating it further.
• 3Once you have forwarded the email, you can then delete it from your email account.
• 4This will help us to get fake websites taken down quickly to prevent other members from getting caught out.
