Scammer using my ebay acount - from this IP address - how??

the

I have read the complete thread from beginning to end, I note also that you use a laptop for your internet and workplace.

Now has your laptop been left unattended or anybody asked you to plug in a usb memory stick, (or any other removable media) . The reason I ask this is because there a various security tools that can be used for nefarious activities. There is one in particular that is common, called "usb switchblade", and it will steal passwords in a few seconds and leave no trace or evidence on your computer.

I hope this info is usefull to yourself and others

I have trouble reading your chat log with the help operator, doesn't seem to make much sense. Just use the latest version of HJT.

yeah, sorry I was copying and pasting it on here whilst talking to them, it is not very clear at all - bolded bits are them, other bits are me...

Struggling to work out how to update hijackthis tho... found an updater button, but it just takes me to their site where it looks like I am dowloading the whole thing again..

The operator is trying to remove the blame from Ebay for foreign correspondent account's being hacked.

Ebay have refused to make it clear:
1. Whether the account was accessed from FC laptop
2. Whether the problem was on their side
Their excuse is "security" reasons.

He now knows a strong password is the only thing necessary to secure a wireless router. If he already knew this and had done it he knows he can rule out his router as an access point from outside his network. Others reading the thread who were unaware of the issues involved will be able to make up their minds from the contrasting views and some research of their own.
