    But actually, if you have a lappy like mine, it remembers the passwords without me having to.
    So if someone manages to gain access to your laptop, (either physically or by hacking) they can then also access both your ebay and paypal accounts?

    Eh HELLO?

    I can't believe you are being so unreasonable.

    I have accounts with Citibank, Nationwide, Very.co.uk, Ebay, Trustpilot and this very web site, plus about 20 others. I cant remember every password. They all want them in a different format anyway. So thanks for trying to make me look stupid when this post was about helping.

    You seem very angry for no good reason.

    I am starting to doubt your story.

    So many people are learning as they go along. I know I am .:D
    I've never heard of Ebay saying they have reset your password.

    I personally am receiving numerous phishing emails,virtually every other day ' Ebay' since I ordered goods from China ( most of which I have got refunds for as they are SNAD)

    The only thing I have learned is, if the message gets you worried - you are likely to react.

    However, I use Ebay an awful lot and have become cynical ( good) and regularly read the mse Ebay board.

    I am trying to help people, going forward about ebay but all I am getting is that I have been hacked, or I am angry. Why does no one focus on the address I posted. The intercepted one. Somewhere in PE postal area.

    So basically dare post on here and you get shot down. HASHTAG NOT HAPPY

    You are raising concerns. Actually people are trying to help you.:(
    I don't see PE Postal code though.
