Default Ebay problem

Some w**ker hacked on my ebay account and listed aload of items (135) in total.. and the prick even changed me password

Luckily ebay noticed this and cancelled all the listings

Don't worry it happens more often than Ebay would like people to realise

Just be thankful they caught it so quickly.

yes i had that too. ive been plagued by ebay for money i dont owe. happened 2 years ago and still not resolved.
i opened a new ebay account and they shut it down as i was in breach of their policies as they reckon i still owe them money.

any complaint you make is dealt with an automated email thats totally unrelated and cannot be replied to.
no phone numbers either inc paypal another rip off ebay company

I think ive found out why it happened..

I put a listing on ebay a couple of days ago and i recieved this email bout my listing, asking me if this was my item on ebay so i click on it and it wasnt my listing..

So i reckon when i opened up the link which they said was my listing, they've somehow got into my account..

LOL, ive just recieved the same email again the cheeky c**ts..
