? Scam email

[cmb0117]

Had an email this morning supposedly from Ebay. Says an item I bought is a safety risk and isn't allowed on Ebay. No idea what this highly dangerous item is as the email hasn't chosen to share that with me. Reviwed my mundane purchases and see no H&S concerns. Has anyone else received a similar email?

Strongly suspect a scam.

It's not a scam email.

Others too,  have received similar 'warning emails',  and no further explanation to which item is involved,  very frustrating.

All I can suggest if you have made several purchases recently, and not sure to which this refers to, is to contact eBay Customer Services,  for them to explain further.

The easiest and quickest way to contact Customer Services is through this link, for a Call Back .

https://www.ebay.co.uk/help/eua?id=5275&mkevt=1&mkpid

On weekdays lines open between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. - 6 p.m.

Weekends lines open between 9 a.m. to 6p.m.

If they cannot provide more information all you're left with,  is to contact the manfacturer's of recent purchases,  ask if their product you purchased has been recalled for safety reasons.

It is a scam. Spoke to Ebay who said no email was sent to me today.
Thanks for link.
