Text Message from eBay, Spam/Scam?

I got this message from "eBayAU" today, I didn't click in the links.

The bit.ly links are suspicious, however one of my ebay accounts I just have "K" for the first name and they also have my mobile number.

99.9% sure it's fake but any chance that it's not?

    Looks legit, as part of the $20 off deal.

    • Cheers, I did try the code and it didnt work but I'll have to see if I can log un with the correct account. Hopefully it stacks with the PEARTREE code.

        Yeah I believe the code is unique to the account, so go and see what account received the text message for. In order to stack with PEARTREE, you'll need to buy an ebay digital gift card first with the voucher.

        • Thanks again, this is going to save me about $50 total on something I've had my eye on for a while.

    I looked up the links and they look legit. Same tip I provided perviously on this site, to find out where a bitly link will redirect you to, just add a "+" to the end of the URL, it'll also tell you how many clicks it has gotten
