Several have cmmented on items for sale that didn't belong to the seller.
I got an email from eBay notifying me that my account had been hijacked and used for this purpose.
Now having changed all the security features, here's a copy of the email;

I get spoof emails all the time trying to get me to divulge my ebay or Paypal information. Most of them are easy to catch, but I got one the other day that was pretty sneaky. It was from a purported "buyer" saying that they had sent the money via Paypal and wanted to know if the item had been shipped. There were several links that I could have clicked on, but, since I hadn't sold the item in question (the item # was legitimate, just not an item of mine), I didn't click through. I reported it to Paypal, but I don't think they understood that one.

Every once in a while, I check to see if I've got any items I don't know about for sale. Usually though, the first thing a hijacker will do is go in and change your password so you can't even get into your own account. That'll be a clue that maybe something's wrong.:rolleyes:
