New SPAM attacks - Ebay purchase issues and Online Traffic Tickets

During the past 2 months, there seens to be a sharp increase in the daily volume of SPAM received.  The ebay phishing attacks come in massive waves with dozens of messages bearing the same title.  Please be careful and delete them without clicking on links or attachments.  A recent update from Sunbelt is also noted below:

QUOTE: I thought it might be useful to give examples of some of the spam we're seeing drop into mailboxes instead of the nearest supernova. Without further ado...

1) "Facebook Survey Gift Invite".
2) Paypal phishing
3) World of Warcraft phishing attacks
