sean l Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Someone probably got ahold of his username/password I could contact ebay immediatly and stop all of those auctions, and change your password, or get a new account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forster Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Oh dear - Im guessing he followed one of the 'log in here to verify your contact details' from an email via a downloaded .html document. The users logs into Ebay via the webpage and the user/pass are emailed to another persons email address. Unfortunate really, or perhaps he just had a really easy pass.

[jon] Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 i think you must have been phished, as forster said... be warned about entering your ebay (or any other details to do with ANYTHING, eg: banks) into any site, even if the URL looks ok, check and double check and watch out for anything that may give the page away...
