Well, just when you thought you had seen every scam out there?!? Imagine my surprise when after opening an email in my personal email account, I see a question from another ebay member. I clicked on respond and of course it took me to my log in screen where I logged in. I responded to the question without even thinking and a few days later get an email from ebay that my account had been comprimised. In a panic I called ebay to ask what had happened and it seems that there are wonderful people out there who have programs that can actually record your key strokes to record your passwords and gain access to your account. Thank goodness that ebay is on the look out for things like this!

NOW MIND YOU, THESE COME TO MY EMAIL, NOT EBAY MESSAGES. BE CAREFUL!!
My main message is this. Go to "my messages" on the ebay website if you are going to respond to any! If it is real, then it will be there. Dont let yourself be a victim of identity theft or fraud. These crooks can make an email look just like the real thing and wreak havoc on you and your life.
I hope that you found this helpful, if so, please check the yes box below!
Happy Bidding,
