Err, while I agree with most of your complaints, https:// is perfectly valid for some web addresses, as it indicates that the page is being accessed via secure http protocol. It would not be unreasonable to expect that, if eBay was to do something like this (which of course it wouldn't), it'd have users submit their information through a secured page.
It is certainly stupid of the spammers not to have set up their fake site at the address they included, though.
