An email has just arrived into my inbox.
It's from eBay, and the subject is 'Congratulation from eBay!'.

I have only bid on two things from eBay lately, one being a PDA which I'm sure I'd been out-bid on, and the other being a James Bond Scaletrix set which I bid on for a joke at a mates house.
The James Bond set was going for £8,000, and at the time of bidding the joke bid, I was the leader, fully expecting someone to outbid me.

I haven't clicked on it yet.

I fear.

Do you think if I just delete it all this will go away?
