As long as they haven't accessed your PP then you shouldn't have to many prob's, you say you changed your password just make sure your new PW is a goodie to stop them doing it again.

Hacked your password to make a "buy it now?" Nope -- I don't think so, there has to be more to it than this.

Are you sure that you aren't looking at a Phishing notification? That's what it sounds like to me.

If it was a Phish, did you click any links in that notification?

You're a sharp guy, but if you have any doubts at all, go directly to EBay, log in and change your password. If your new password does not work, you were phished and your old one will. Log in and change it asap.

If you can no longer log onto eBay, you have effectively lost that account. Still, it's the PayPal you should be worried about. Reverse the purchase immediately.

thanks for the help guys.

pp and bank accounts were not compromised, passwords are all different. i changed all my passwords just to be safe.

life is good!
