New York’s streets are awash with counterfeit cash this holiday season — and lawmakers say it’s very real-looking Hollywood movie prop money that’s been bought on Amazon and eBay. Of course ebay has yet to do anything about it - yet. Unbelievable how most purchasers can't take a few minutes and do some considerable homework on signatures or checking past feedback ratings on these types and shell out considerable amounts of money for these forged fake signature items.

Recognize Fake Web Pages

Fake emails often include links to fake web pages designed to trick you into giving up your financial or account information. Here are some tips to help you determine if a web address goes to a real eBay web page:

Watch out for fake URLs (web addresses)

Even if the web address contains the word 'eBay', it might not be an eBay website. Real eBay web addresses have '.ebay.com/' in them. There won't be anything between the period and 'ebay' and there won't be anything after the '.com' and the first forward slash (/).

Real eBay addresses:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/index.html
http://hub.ebay.com/community
https://signin.ebay.com/

Fake eBay addresses:

http://signin-ebay.com/
This address contains a dash (-) instead of a period (.) between 'signin' and “ebay”.
http://page.@ebay.com
This address has an at sign (@) between the period and “ebay”.
http://signin.ebay.com@10.19.32.4/
This address has something between the '.com' and the forward slash.

If you're signing in with your eBay username and password, be sure that the web address starts with https://signin.ebay.com/. Look for the 's' in 'https,' which indicates that you're signing in to a secure server. This is one more way you can help protect your personal information.

When in doubt, start at the eBay home page
