Ebay User Info Appears to Have Been Hacked .......Check Your Accounts!!!
I'm posting this story, but looking for more information. T & S is shut down on eBay, and apparently many accounts were compromised.
eBay Shuts Trust & Safety Board after Credit Card Numbers Exposed Quote:eBay shut down an entire discussion board devoted to Trust & Safety issues after someone began posting confidential user information. Someone using multiple User IDs began listing information purported to be eBay users' private and financial data on the Trust & Safety discussion board. Mark, a user who says he posts regularly on the board, said he noticed the problem at 8:50 am Eastern on Tuesday and called his eBay representative about 20 minutes later after he saw the posts remained. He said it took about an hour for the posts to be removed, and minutes later, the entire board was taken down. continue reading here. |

Re: If You Are an Ebay Member, Check Your Account........
There have been 2 partial lists of the ids that may have been compromised posted. Ebay already took down one of the pages (it was a me page)
The 2nd list was posted on a web page, and is still up xxhere. It is a long list. |

Re: If You Are an Ebay Member, Check Your Account........
According to posters who are members of T & S, and actually viewed the lists before ebay took them down, credit card numbers were listed, ccv nos., contact info, user registration date and time stamps.
The lists were up on T & S for approx 2 hours. :blinkie: |

29 pages were posted before ebay shut the server down. They are claiming that they were not hacked. :

From another board (Rosie's)by a T & S poster:
Quote:eBay's official statement is that the CC numbers were faked, but one poster had found that their ID was hijacked and their CC numbers were valid. More on eBay's "explanation": Quote:This is the BS that the eBay AU reps are handing out: |

Quote:it was a server issue where the system displayed the poster's information rather than the post itself If that happened then eBay is legally required to notify the users whose information was compromised by the "server issue" <--("server issue"  )

The partial list of compromised ids as posted on a member's "me page" until ebay pulled it:
Quote:List of Names (Partial) I found a screenshot from earlier this am (posted on another board) of T & S, Not too sure I should post it though............ Ebay is pulling threads from the boards also. Town Square had a large thread re the hack---now gone. |
