If you want to panic over a mysterious transaction on Ebay to the tune of $564.48 for a “Microsoft Windows 8 Pro Anytime Upgrade”, then this is probably the email you’ve been waiting for.
It reads:
You have made an Ebay.com purchase.

Clicking the link in the fake PayPal email will take end-users to the usual round of Cridex / Blackhole URLs. On a similar note, there’s an additional email floating around that claims you purchased 84 copies of “Vintage photo collection sexy college girls 1990s or 2000s”.

Last time we saw this one was back in June where the tally was 23, so I guess the book is really popular. As above, Cridex is the name of the game so be sure to only check anything you’ve ordered by logging into your chosen service (and to be fair, you should have a pretty good idea of whether or not you ordered 84 copies of a “sexy college girls” book).
