KJxp Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Somebody could have hacked your PC, or trojaned some spyware on to it, or just plain guessed your password. Change or cancel any other account with that password while you can!Anybody using your stolen account can bid using your credit cards. Put a fraud alert on any credit cards associated with the ebay account or paypal account (if you have one)!ID Theft is real! Extra precaution is never harmful.See http://www.consumer.gov/idtheft/index.htmlEbay - report account theft:http://pages.ebay.com/help/tp/isgw-account...-reporting.htmlYahoo: it looks like there is not way to contact them without signing in first.

KJxp Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Do other sites also go slow? This could be caused by spyware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
