Last week I posted a for-rent classified on TUG, using a newly-created email address. It's the only place this particular address has been posted.
Today I received a phishing e-mail addressed to that address. It says it's a question from an eBay member, but the text suggests that it's actually from eBay itself, seeking confirmation that I and a seller mutually cancelled a sale. Of course, I never heard of the item or seller, so I'm supposed to click on "Respond Now" which takes me to a very good replica of the eBay logon screen, which solicits my username and password. Only the URL is proxy.tmettec.com
Don't bite on this one.
