I got a "contact a member" type email through ebay today:

I BELEAVE THAT I PURCHASED A SEVEN CARD STUD GAME FROM YOU SOMETIME BACK. I HAVE BEEN VERY SICK AND UNABLE TO CONTACT YOU. I AM HOME AGAIN AND WELL AGAIN.I NEVER RECIEVED THIS ITEM.WOULD YOU CONTACT ME AND TELL ME HOW I CAN COMPLETE THIS. I DID PAY FOR IT. THANK YOU (name and address here) P.S. MY ADRESS HAS CHANGED SINCE BUYING ITEM

I wrote back:

Hi, sorry, I've never sold a 7 card stud game or anything even vaguely resembling one. I haven't had this ID for too long, perhaps the transaction was with a former owner of the name.

Did you have to sign in to reply? If you did, then contact Ebay to deal with someone possibly stealing your Ebay info.

Yes, I did have to sign in to reply. There is nothing odd about my account, my email address, etc. hasn't been changed. And there are no extra items sold. I changed my password today.

Ask for the item # and their payment method.
