Chris,
After some thought I believe I know why they contacted me. I was the second highest bidder which would make me a prime target for a spoof or scam like this. They can contact any bidder simply by pulling up his profile. After that it is also probably a simple matter of hacking or duplicating the web page. EBay did reply and are looking into it. In the meantime I think I'll be better off buyng directly from a music store. No I didn't provide any information to any inquiry for confidential information.
