Members guitarbilly74 Posted October 7, 2008 Members Share Posted October 7, 2008 Not that I know of. I did recieve an email from ebay a while back saying that it was possible that my account might've been hacked, so they rendered it non-functioning, and so I cahnged my password to get back into it, and this is what I get eBay does NOT send emails like this. Looks like someone sent you a fake email, you went to a site that looked like eBay and typed in your current and "new" password there, which were submitted to the scammer. Once they got a hold of your password they used your account to scam somebody. I'm pretty sure that's what happened. It's called "phishing".. call ebay asap and also change your passwords on any other sites that you use the same password for. Especially Paypal.
