You are then invited to fill in a survey form, with then 3 chances to
win an Iphone 11. You always win the Iphone 11, it then takes you to
another page, where you are expected to fill in your credit card

I'm surprised Ebay allow such a scam on their website, or maybe they

Malwarebytes is pretty good at expunging this kind of stuff.
