Nah sounds like a scam to me.
Firstly the address
I have just looked at my account. As soon as you log in it becomes HTTPS (Making it secure)
Any thing your unsure look at the help file on ebay.

Like it says on the actual Ebay site...... Ebay will never ask you ANY sensitive info via email....

Your going to get bullshit emails like this from eBay and Paypal, Ignore them both, unless you want someone to spend your money.

They'll never ask your for account details
