OT: My Ebay Account Was Hijacked

Posted By: Chris

This actually happened to me a few years ago. I NEVER open any links at all and I thought the email was a spoof until my password wouldn't work. When I called Ebay, they said the problem was real. Someone had somehow hacked my account. They didn't know how, but it had happened. I was told that it may have been some kind of spyware that can detect key strokes.
I was fortunate that no damage was done. You may need to monitor things to make sure nothing happens with your account. Good luck with it.
