Latest Ebay scam

Had 3 e-mails last week supposedly from Ebay users who haven't received an item or asking if I accept postal orders. As I'm currently not selling anything I immediately clicked on the link to the item being sold, to be taken to what looked like the Ebay sign-in page. I almost put my username and password in before remembering I shouldn't need to do this just to view an item. Looks like it's a scam to get access to peoples' accounts. Sample e-mail below (should have known by the grammar & spelling that it was dodgy):

Look, There are now 2 months since I paied for the item and I still didn`t receive it.This is my last warning : unless you solve the problem the first thing I shall report you to ebay and second I shall go to the police .

I am loosing my patience... i will wait your reply !!!
