ebay watched items

I logged on last night to my ebay account, as you do, and found I was watching around 20 different items. Four of them I knew about, the rest were for sex toys and self pleasuring devices. I even had a notice to tell me I'd been outbid on a Borat thong!!!!!!!!

 

And yes, I've asked my wife if she know's anything of it and assures e she doesn't.

 

Anyone else had this happen??

 

I've since removed all my card details from Paypal just in case.

Had a similar thing a couple of weeks ago. I couldn't log onto my account all day, then recieved a message from Ebay to say my account had been suspended as it had been hacked and listings for childrens clothes made. Listing fees were refunded and the account reactivated but I closed it anyway for securitys sake- and lost 100% feedback on 140 transactions.

 

Personally I think the Ebay computer system just screwed up, as to operate an account you need not only the account password but the email password as well, a real hacker would probably do more with that information than list a few pairs of baby socks.

hacking into peoples ebay account is simplicity itself-theres even full details of how to do it on you-tube.Only thing you can do is tell ebay as soon as you notice anything odd-dont bother trying to change your password cos it can be obtained in seconds (they have already probably changed it to prevent access).You might also like to inform your isp.

have you used an internet cafe recently ? a computer at work ? or left your laptop etc. on and left it for a short period ? if you don`t log out of ebay each time you finish then the next person to use that computer will be logged straight into your account . the items that have been stored in your watched items and even bid on sound as if someone is having a bit of a giggle .
