Someone hijacked my eBay account! :(
This morning, I got an email from eBay "thanking" me for my change of e-mail request. Since I didn't make such a request, I sent an email to eBay about this unauthorized change. I also discovered that my password and secret question on my account have also been changed, leaving me with no way to access my account.
Now, I just discovered that whoever's hijacked my account is using it to sell PowerBooks! See this auction. That's me listed as the seller, but I'm not selling any PowerBooks!
Anyone have any suggestions? I've already sent the appropriate emails to eBay. Hopefully they'll respond soon. How does something like this happen.

I hope FBI catches that bastard.
then by the time ebay sorted it out at least he would be tied up trying to get his $1000
and not scamming your name for more $... whats more is that you wont get negative feedback
Sigh, what a great start to the week... \

Well, I guess this sorta hilites a flaw in eBay's security. On my home computer, I had "always keep me signed in" for my "My eBay" page. On there, I can click "See Buyers" for the auction without entering my password (since it's kept me "logged in"). Of course, if I do anything that requires a password, I can't get by it since my password's been changed.
you also need to CALL ebay at 408 376-7400
