Most email programs allow you to block email messages that contain certain words or are sent from addresses that you specify. For more information about how to set filters, consult your email program's help files or contact your email provider. When you set up email filters, make sure that those filters do not block any important messages that you may need to receive from eBay.
You can also report the unwanted email to the sender's Internet service provider (ISP) or email provider. If the email is deemed inappropriate, the ISP/email provider has jurisdiction to take action.
Change Your Email Address
One way to prevent unwanted email is by selecting a new email address to use with your eBay account. Most Internet service providers allow users to register multiple email addresses. There are also a number of services that offer free email accounts. After you have opened a new email address, you can change the email address on vour eBay account. Once you have changed your email address, any email you receive from eBay will be directed to that address.
Keep in mind that there are several ways that individuals can obtain your email address, including message boards, chat rooms, and email messages sent by friends or relatives to multiple email addresses (for example, forwarded jokes or news articles). In order to prevent the receipt of unwanted email in your eBay account, you may want to register an email address that you use only for buying and selling on eBay.
Protect your eBay Password and Your Personal Information
eBay treats your personal information with the utmost care, and our Privacy Policy is designed to protect you and your information. eBay will not request personal information (password, credit card numbers, pin numbers, passwords, or Social Security numbers) in an email or in most cases, our surveys.
However, there are rare exceptions when eBay performs usability surveys that measure participants' actual use of eBay. In these exceptional cases, personal information is sometimes needed, and participants are told explicitly in advance what will be required. Additionally, participants are given contact information in order to validate that the survey is indeed from eBay.
