Guys,don't take this too lightly.My ebay acct WAS hijacked 1/9/04 and they also got my ebay registered email acct. Just recently got my hotmail acct back and updated,but still need to work things out with ebay.Meanwhile acct has been suspended.Had to establish awhole new ID.It's a nightmare.The only that tipped ebay off was I repeating failed to login.Too many times and ebay freezes things up.I went and emailed the 50+ people who thought they were dealing with during that time period.What a nightmare.Protect yourself and may be a good idea to always login to a site directly from that site and never from links.
