Auctiva balance due scam email 
 Scammer
  Information
Name:
Auctiva
Scam Website:
Asking for money for listing items on Ebay. Since I have never listed an item on ebay, ever, seems unlikely that I owe $128.61 for that purpose. I don\'t have an Auctiva account. Not too concerned about the associated threat as I don\'t plan on listing on ebay. If I was a regular lister on ebay, I might have fallen for this one. Third party scam? I think so - the CLICK HERE takes you to //annwcraven1.com/www.auctiva.com/signin.php. It doesn\'t take you to Auctiva.com.

Here\'s the email:

You Have a Balance Due!

Because you have a past due balance in the amount of $128.61, your account has been restricted.

Until your balance is paid in full, you will continue to see this message when you log in, and your account will remain limited to our Free Tools Plan features, such as the Auctiva Scrolling Gallery. However, you cannot post new listings to eBay, you cannot upload new images, and previously uploaded images may be deleted.

Please pay this balance today, which will allow you to pick an account plan to restore your Listing Service and Image Hosting.

If you have any questions about your account : CLICK HERE

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
