I am going to try ebay out one more time. If someone trys to place a bid under my name I am closing it out. I am glad that I had the security added from the time before that it happened. The person that I talked to from ebay before I reopened my account said that the person had put a winobago up for bidding under my name. I also wonder if it is someone that I know from my past that is doing this. Like my ex husband or his new wife. I mean the first time this happened was shortly after I divorced him in 2006. This is all really aggervatting to me. It is proberly just me thinking this but it still makes me wonder or if it is someone that I am not thinking about.

I get those also. I have learned to go to my ebay account to double check and see if it is a scam email or if it is really from ebay.

I hope they catch whoever is doing this. I mean this is a invasion of privacy. Selling something underneath my account. Besides that it charged my account. Lukily I wasn't charged.

It is very possible that it could be one that you are just not thinking about. I hope it would never happen to you again since ebay itself is already aware of the breach. I love ebay and loves to shop and it would really be a big loss if one is going to stop selling or buying from ebay entirely. Happy shopping!

It is just hard for me to trust the site since this makes the second time this has happened to me.

Good day.. That is way scary specially when you accumulated a good reputation through hard work. I mean who could have access to your account? I mean that person can ruin your reputation and worse involved you in fraud if that person use your account name for scamming. I hope you can resolve it, the sooner the better.

I have bought things from e-bay, but have never tried to sell anything. I am hesitant to do so. I have heard that lots of times you never get your money. So far though, the things I have bought have been fine and I got what I ordered. I hope that this doesn't happen to you again. I would be really wondering who would be trying to pull such a thing. It almost has to be someone you know to place something under your name don't you think? Good luck and best wishes!

I am not sure but I really wonder if it is someone that I have had a fight with in the past.

I have tried bidding on ebay... But i have never bought anything... Actually what i do is i try to bid a very low amount.. just to see if anyone else has bid on it.. I mean if no one has seen that item on ebay.. ill win that auction and get the item for very low price... But this never happens.. there is someone or the other who always bids higher than me... But still i will not stop doing that... he he
