Re: Anybody seen ebay?
dont put in your password like i did!!!!!!!! you will see a regular ebay item like usual there will be a porn pic where the gallery picture goes. If you click on it, a page that looks like the ebay login page will come up.
My suggestion is to just stay away to avoid theft identity. |

Re: Anybody seen ebay?
my ebay account got hacked about 1 week ago and the also hacked into my paypal account and bought $1400 worth of stuff. Maybe all of this stuff might be related. Everyone should be careful.

Re: Anybody seen ebay?
I had this same experience two weeks ago looking for truck parts on ebay. Be careful if it looks like ebay's main site asking for your login and password. Check the URL at the top and see if it is actually ebay's site. It is probably a Phishing site and if you enter your login and password you are toast!!!

Re: Anybody seen ebay?
Just FYI....Never click on a link you get in an email from them. Always just type in ebay.com or paypal.com and you should be ok. If there is a problem with your account it will tell you once you sign in. I get 3-4 of those phishing emails a day. Some of them look pretty official too.

Re: Anybody seen ebay?
That only happens when you don`t close-out the porn site you were on before you got on Ebay.

Re: Anybody seen ebay?
Saw the porn pic yesterday on the list to a search, but when clicked on it said it had been removed.

Re: Anybody seen ebay?
Ebay has been having some security problems lately, so be careful what you do and click on.
