    Needless to say, this does not come from ebay, but from

    Code:

    Nothing shows up on the https://www.virustotal.com url scan, so it usually means it's new.

    Depending on how much time you want to put into it you can always forward this over to AV providers and malware site blacklisters, such as http://www.scumware.org/ .

    There's literally thousands of this type of **** appearing daily.
