Post by: Panda Paws on Wednesday, June 17, 2009, 18:09:54
Right so someone has managed to get into my ebay account and order shit loads of stuff i dont want, and make paypal payments. how do i cancel bids and get my money back? also, is there any way i can get the IP address of the person who made the bids? if no one can help, never mind, but thought the Townend always has the answer

You sure you didn't just get drunk and bid for stuff?

Report it to eBay and/or PayPal immediately, they'll put a stop to all transactions.

I've had my ebay account jacked twice, both about a year or so ago, I just contacted ebay and they were really good about it, they protected my feedback and dealt with all the admin stuff.

I once logged on and found someone was selling non-existent fake prada bags using my account....

That's really stupid, if they're non-existent you may as well sell genuine ones.

Good point, I think the actual wording was -

"Prada look-a-like hand bag, genuine leather"

I'll have 4...

Have you ever thought about changing your username? Was your password related to it?

I wondered how they managed to hack it?
