This concerns the credit card you have on file for billing purposes for your eBay account xxxxxxxxx

Your credit card declined on eBay's latest attempt to charge your balance due. According to the decline information from your card issuer, this particular credit card account is no longer accepting any billing attempt. We have now removed this card from your eBay account, and will not make any further attempt to bill your balance to this credit card number.

You are still responsible for making a payment - you can use any of the alternative payment methods, using the links below. You can also use the bottom link to place a different credit card on file for billing. Please be sure to supply a credit card number that is open and active.

Please do not reply to this notice as you will not receive a response.

To make a payment now go to:

Place a different credit card on file for billing purposes
[url]https://arribada.ebay.com/saw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?PlaceCCIn



Thank you!

I am thoroughly confused

Maybe it's just a mistake! I would call my credit card company first and make sure no unwanted action is showing up, before I called Ebay.

I, personally, wouldn't do anything until you write to them...


http://pages.ebay.com/help/billing/index.html

just called my bank; now I wait for ebay to respond since I had to email them instead of calling


thanks for the help

I think these are scams....here is a link to one of the threads posted awhile back regarding this....Never use a link in an email to give out personal info...always update/give info at the direct site or call them.

Good luck!

Please keep us posted! Hoping it works out!

my bank is open until 8pm so w/ I called last night she said...there IS something pending from ebay can't gather all the info yet

BUT there is NO reason for any paymt to be denied.

she too said wait for ebay & don't touch the links in the email


this makes me very confused how scammers would know which timeframe my pay would be automatically deducted and

I just changed my email contact w/ebay so how did the scammers find that out so quick??
