My Ebay has been hacked!!
 
:hackedoff:

Just tried to log onto ebay to buy an alternator for my car. Anyway couldent, passsword wrong.

I happen to check my personal email which i have ebay notifications to and i have messages regarding item i am selling :confused:.

looked at them and i am apparantly selling leather bags at 60 quid a pop, so fat i have made over 3oo quid!! WTF!!

now what do i do, checked my paypal and not money has gone in or out even though payment for 2 has been recieved!!

I have changed my password, as whoever it was was dumb enough to let notifications come to my email.

I am worried as if they have access to my ebay they have access to my paypal and bank via it. Nothing out of the ordinary on either yet.

what should i do? any advice/similar experiances??

Scan your pc for virus, trojans all that kinda thing first.
Login to everything, change passwords to everything, any problems treat as suspicious.
Email the buyers of the bags, tell them whats happened, so they can take steps to reverse any payment.

i contacted ebay via an online chat function to explain the problem and also had to speak to them over the phone and it was fine.

i never figured out how they got into my account. i changed all my passwords (that were the same/similar to my ebay and paypal ones). not had any problems since.
