Some Chinese people have stolen my Ebay account and listed a load of expensive things under it! This was all done on Friday and I hadn't checked my email since then. Fuck!
My password was the same as my user name, I thought they'd have to confirm more info to change things though. I set up a new ebay account and I sent messages to all the people who've won bids. Som bid on one of the items and forwarded me the message from the "seller" which I passed to Ebay. Grr.
a bit weak of the system to allow password and id sameness :( Though I tend to reuse passwords my PC security is slightly OTT with a hardware and software firewall, 1 full anti virus and another which runs a full system scan if i leave the computer on overnight so its on at 8:00 am, 2 different spyware detectors and 1 running all the time. Have you got a techie nerd type to install firewall and anti virus and anti spyware stuff on your computer just in case they got your details via a virus ?
