i tried to sign in today, but it says my password is invalid. i was on yesterday with no problems. i tried to have them send me my password to see if it got changed, but i don't get any emais back even though it says they've sent me one. since i can't log in, i can't get a hold of anyone at ebay.

The symptoms you describe would happen if someone got in to your account, wouldn't they?
Or it could be some problem with mail at your end. Can you mail yourself anything, or have a friend mail you?

408-558-7400 This was a number I used for Ebay, you might see if it still works for you. I wonder if you are getting Phony Ebay emails? Did you contact spoof@ebay.com? Good luck!

It certainly sounds like someone has gotten into your account. What you can try is the "lost password" section and log on with a new password that E-Bay sends you. That's what I had to do a few months back. I was pretty luck and caught it before they really screwed with things. I would also check your Paypal accont if you have one. That could a be a real headache if they have gotten to that as well

I just logged in to my account and had no problems. I hope the phone number helps. It does sound like someone hacked your account. Good luck!

well it seems someone did hack into my ebay site. after a LONG time waiting on the online ebay chat, i got through to someone on ebay security. apparently there were several nokia items listed for sale on my site . they had already blocked them, but since someone changed my password ,i couldn't tell. they gave me a new password, and i've been assured that any hackers can't gain access to any bank #s. so far, everything is back to normal . i was really worried that my bank account would have dropped to $0 by the time it got straightened out !

The question now is, how did they get in there? Check your system for viruses and spyware, and never click on 'official' emails from ebay, always go to ebay from your browser.
