    Ive had an email every day for the last 5 days from "uk.collections@ebay.com".

    Says the following:





    *** This is a system generated email, please do not reply. ***


    Payment Reminder

    ----------------


    Dear eBay seller:


    This is a payment reminder from the eBay Collections Department.


    Your account has an overdue balance of


    GBP 6.73


    We would appreciate if you could make a payment towards your overdue balance.



    Yours sincerely,

    eBay International AG

    Department of Loss Prevention


    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    How do I pay? :


    To make a one-time credit card payment please follow steps 1 & 2 below.


    1. Click on Site Map in the Navigation Bar at the top of most eBay pages.

    2. Scroll down and click on 'Make payments toward my account' in the Services section under Seller Accounts. Click then on Option 1 or 2.

    3. Follow the instructions provided on that page and mail to the address provided on the payment coupon.


    You can also now make a one time payment from your PayPal account to pay your eBay fees.


    To make a payment either go to the "Selling Account" tab on My eBay or to the Make a One Time Payment page. You can reach the One Time Payment page by following the steps below:


    1. Click the "My eBay" link at the top of any eBay page. You may be asked to log in.

    2. From your "My eBay" page, click the "Selling Account" tab on the left hand side of the page.

    3. On the Account page, click the "Make a one time payment" link in the "Account-Related Links" box.

    4. On the next page, in the "Option 1, Online One-Time Payment" box,

    select the "PayPal" option and click "Make an Online Payment."


    Your payment of your seller fees must be initiated from the eBay site, it cannot be done through the PayPal site.

    We appreciate your prompt attention in bringing your account balance up-to-date and look forward to your rejoining the eBay Community in the near future!

    Sum1 has actually been using my identify and opened an ebay account n been sellin stuff on it!!!

    Dunno what they been selling but it was against ebays t&c's so they closed the account.

    However they left a balance of about £23 - so I got a nice letter on Friday from sum debt collection company!!! :lol:
