Hey guys,
I am considering becoming an e-bay seller. How the hell does someone's e-bay account get "hijacked"??
thanks alot,
Ravi
Easy, I get fake emails all the time that appear to be from ebay, but when you click the links in the email..it takes you to a sign on screen that looks very much like the ebay sign on screen, but if you look at the address bar it is not ebay.com So unsuspecting people enter their ebay id and pw and the crooks then have it to use. ....Usually the emails say something like "Log in now to keep your ebay userid from being turned off due to accounting problems"..or something like that. You don't have to click the links to know, just set your cursor over them and see what address displays at the bottom of your browser. Same with bank account emails too...
