it is COMPLETELY FAKE
no one will EVER ask for your atm PIN NUMBER???? wtf
no one would ever need that to get money from you, and you should have never had to give it to ebay in the first place

2nd. bigtime wtf. Never give PIN #
Pretty much ANY email that u get that says "we need update our database" or "for security reasons" or anthing are a scam. Never email anybody your CC#, PIN#, ATM#, SS#, or anything important. Companies like Ebay would send you to a SECURE webpage to enter any info, b/c email is not safe. Thats one reason that order confirmation emails list your credit card number with a bunch of XXXXX's except for last 4 digits.
