I also use Auctionstealer. The address is completely legit, as it is a See
Fusion product, and the message appears on their homepage.
I didn't get the message, but have changed the pw for that auction site.
I suspect that won't help at all, though, and possibly makes things worse.

Subject: Re: [OM] ( OM ) OT snipe message and the Bay
AuctionStealer is a sniping service that I, and I believe others on the
list, use. They give 10 free snipes a month with some limits on wwhen
you can set them up. I just sniped 3 small item in the last few days
with AuctionStealer. I've been on the lookout for an invercone for the
Weston Master V, which seems even more interesting in light of the
recent thread on incident metering. They are always available from the
UK, but the prices are high. I picked up 2 with 2 separate snipes from a
single seller in Australia for a grand total of $15, including airmail.
So anyway, AuctionStealer is a legit operation. However, I didn't
receive an e-mail like Brian's, although I am a regular user, and you,
who apparently don't even know they exist, received one. And the address
is not at AuctionStealer, so it sounds a bit iffy.
