I get at least email a week saying you need to update your info or your ebay accou8nt will be suspended. First time I got one I was like, Oh crap, so I clicked on the little concenient link and it brought me to the ebay sign in page. Good thing for me I use Mozilla Firefox, cause it saves my passwords and this login page didnt. Then after some close looking I noticed the http:// was not https:// The s is for a secure website, like it should be when you log into accounts.

Should I call in a "favor"? You know they can "take care of it" for a small fee.

That really sucks though, I'm gonna go take my credit card info off paypal. Sorry to hear that Pete. They'll catch 'em and he'll be someones bitch.

The number one mistake people make with ebay and paypal is that they use the same password for both.....NEVER use the same password for both.

Sorry to hear of your problems......good luck!

Sucks to hear it, man. I know that whenever I have things stolen or broken, whoever did it better hope the authorities catch them before I do.

I know what your going through Pete. I had my eBay account hacked about 2 years ago and they bought $380,000 worth **** using buy it now on about 30 different cars, trucks and boats.

eBay told me I was screwed but the user agreement you agree to when you sign up says your responsible for all transactions even unauthorized ones. BASTARDS!!!!!!

I didnt pay for any of it.

I had to contact each and every seller and let them know what happened. Most of them were cool about it but I still had a few a-holes who still wanted me to pay for the stuff so they left negative feedback and warnings and my account got suspended! [:@] go figure
