Weird eBay email - Payment "on hold"?

I have been an eBayer for years and never received anything like this. I'm pretty sure it was a hoax since I checked my inbox on eBay's page and didn't have it there. The message stated that my PayPal payment to a vendor was "on hold" until I left feedback for him/her. It then listed links for everyone of the items I purchased (a little scary) for leaving feedback. I didn't click! I did go to eBay and leave feedback there. Anyone else ever get this? It looked legit but I know these spam e-mailers are very talented at making the messages look real. It also had the real name of the seller listed in the e-mail.
