You sure you’re using the right address? I test-forwarded a message to spoof@ebay.co.uk and got a different reply:

“eBay can drop the web address into a database so that your Internet browser can flag it as a phishing site”

How does that work then?

So ebay are one step in causing themselves to shut down, when you recieve a spoof email from ebay they don’t want to know anymore. so they are now allowing everyones account to be hacked into and they don’t care? do those on fuckbay know about this closure?

Slightly off topic so apologies but I could do with some help. I now have a shop and can’t see my traffic reports becuse a ‘third part authorisation’ error comes up.

I spoke to my account manager who sent it to the ebay tech team. After two weeks they came back and said ‘it is not our problem, it is an omniture problem you will need to speak to them.’

I have emailed them and got no reply and I tried a phone number on which I left a message but no one has called me back.

Ebay just sy I need to speak to Omniture because it is a third party problem. So I am now stuck. I am very keen to see these traffic reports but ebay won’t help me.

Does anyone have a technical support telephone number for omniture?

Thanks

If anyone really needs this feature I can set one up on my website. You send whatever email it is to my spoof address and two days later I’ll send an automated reply saying, “It’s a spoof”.
