Of course it's a scam.

But if you're not sure, mail support at e-bay and ask them.

Better yet, look at the message headers and see where it actually comes from. And where the page you go to is really. My bet is the originating domain ends in .ru - there's a big run on e-bay scams, viruses and 'phishing' going on at the moment and it all seems to be based in Russia.
