That said, I haven’t used my eBay account in a very long time, so this seems like a scam, but I wouldn’t be surprised if eBay asked me for account verification because I haven’t used it in a while. If so, what should I do?

What’s suspicious is that the message says your item has been sold, when that’s not the case.
Check your account using the eBay link instead.
