Default The spoof that wasn't

A couple weeks ago I reported that I had been receiving emails from "eBay"
about my watched items having been relisted. The first time they were not
items that I had ever watched, but the second time one of the items was very
similar to what I would be watching, and the other was exactly something I
had been watching! Both times I forwarded them to . Both
times I received the standard "we can assure you that eBay did not send
them." This happened again on Wednesday. Again I reported it to spoof.
Today I received this email from eBay:

"The notice we sent to you incorrectly referred to an item bieng relisted
that is not on the "Watching" list for your account. Although this
notice is an authentic email from eBay, it was mistakenly sent by our
system. We apologize for any inconvenience or concern this might have
caused you.

Other members have also reported receiving notices for items they are
not watching. We appreciate your patience with us as we work to correct
this problem as soon as possible."

I wonder if any other rccers had this experience.
