Hi everyone, I had a scary thing happen to me today when I find out that my eBay account had been hacked. I recently sold a Mark McGwire signed baseball and the hacker had re-listed it as a fixed value listing and then listed some Microsoft Office product in another auction with tons of add-ons.
eBay suspended account access and reversed the charges that were incurred as a result. The scary part about this is, I have no idea how anyone could have accessed my account. I'm very protective with my information, don't ever click on phishing emails and the like. I used to keep "My eBay" up throughout the day so I'm guessing I may have been hacked that way.
Has this happened to anyone? Does anyone have any insight on this issue? Luckily, eBay resolved it but I don't think I'll be using eBay much anymore. I have to be a lot more vigiliant and protective of my personal information - it's a crazy world out there!
Thanks,
Tim
