so some ho wmy ebay account was broken into and about 50 polo shirts where listed.....i ran scans and what nbot offline..here is my log...please help!!!!
Unfortunately, Ebay accounts are being broken into all the time. You might say it is a different type of identity theft that is becoming a problem for Ebay. Our local news just did a story about this very thing.
I change my password about every two weeks and log into my account once a day to check my account setting.
Ebay has some tips about how to keep your account secure.
I'm interested about this - but very busy - so I'll tag along on the thread and ask my simple question.... apart from being a problem to Ebay and generally bad news (no doubt scammers and the like are behind this) is it only PERSONALLY a problem for your Ebay usage if you sell there? Or will it affect an Ebay user like me, who only uses it as the last resort to buy something I cannot get anywhere else? Just interested if I need to take any extra steps to secure my account (like logging in regularly!)
Ebay has a bad rep for account hijacking. You need to make every username and account you have secure:
8 digits long MINIMUM
use numbers, letter, case AND punctuation when possile
change passwords MONTHLY
Even my strong usernames are being cracked now by brute forcers. I saw a successul attack on my private email address by a hacker a few weeks back.
Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
