On eBay, let the seller also beware: an account hijacking story

Quote:Someone had busted in to my eBay account perhaps while using the New IBM Thinkpad T 60 p Laptop Duo 2. 16 Gz 200795 U T 60 or the NEW !! DELL Inspiron E 1505 6400 LAPTOP NOTEBOOK 100 GB that it looked like I was selling.

How this happened, Im not sure. I do use eBay. I buy things (makeup, jewelry, sometimes a car ) and I sell things (old books, unwanted impulse buys, sometimes a car ). But I know never to click on the links provided in totally convincing-looking eBay e-mails; I always go directly to eBay. com. And I know better than to heed the directions in or even open the suspicious-looking correspondence that arrives from time to time...
