    Sounds like your account has been hijacked.

    If you can first thing to do is change ur password.

    Contact eBay and alert them immediately. I know someone who had his account hacked, they 'sold' two mobiles to persons who left positive feedback immediately then listed two others, took the money and disappeared!

    I had my account hijacked earlier in the year. I contacted E-Bay and within 20 minutes it was all sorted out. For once they were great.

    I just had this same thing happen - and with Ug boots too Sorted out within teh hour but also had my moneybookers account almost hijacked Teh isp address was in China. It's made me nervous about everything else online now. Do you think it's related to cashback sites?

    Make sure your ebay and paypal passwords are secure ,with a good mix of Numbers letters etc and don't use real words.And keep them different from cashback sites etc.
