I sign on and see that I'm selling 32 Shure SM57 microphones! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)
I immediately change the password, the email address, my paypal password, my email password, etc... Damn, now I'm nervous!!!! I felt good about it before. Ebay got the message I sent and cancelled all of the auctions and credited the fees, but damn! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

I never read the emails from ebay, paypal and all of those banks who have problems with my account.
I think someone did a good job with the password - ebay should lock the account when you have X number of failed login attempts. Once they logged in, they changed the email address then listed 32 phony auctions with directions to email them at a Chinese web address. Then they put the email back to what it should be. I guess I should be happy that they didn't just lock me out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
