New eBay Scam - 3 Cal Neva Chips

I was a losing bidder on the auction for the three Cal Neva Pine Cone C&S chips. Today I received the following email:

Hello,
I am the winner of the auction "3 Cal Neva roulettes 1937 crest & seal(6158106111)". I want to sell the item because I have some financial problems . If you are interested to buy contact me and we will discuss the details ( the price , the way of payment ,how the shipping will be done etc.). I will wait your answer.Please contact me at :

I know this is a scam because I only bid $65 (first bidder) and they sold for $6,000. The thing that bothers me is that they were able to connect my bid with my email address. I thought eBay did not release my address unless I had a "relationship" with the other person. I supposed they could have found I was selling on ebay and used the "Ask a Question" but that sounds like a lot of work for a scam this transparent. Any one else get this nice offer?
