If you notice in that e-mail that JAF got; the link says "https://"; that extra 's' in there makes all the difference... and that's how they catch people. Anyone can mimic eBay or Paypal; it's not hard; but they can't have the exact same address as them...![]()

Actually, it's the REAL address that'll have the https:// -- that means it's a secure page. The printed address in the message text can be entirely different from whatever it's actually hyperlinked to (you can hover your mouse over the link to see the real address in your e-mail client's status-bar or, at least, I can in Eudora).
Of course, the EASIEST way to distinguish JAF's e-mail from a real PayPal or eBay correspondence is the severely broken English.

It probably actually told you to watch out if it wasn't https://
If you go to ebay.com and click on "Sign in", the sign-in page is https://
