eBay Suspended & PayPal Limited Forums - Ebay "last item viewed"

Just now I have seen iphone lot in my recently viewed items and I never looked at them, can you tell what you see? Maybe its a new marketing tool for them or something?

It wasn't an iphone.. it was some kind of computer thing.. Kinda resembled a scanner but NOT.. Never even heard of it.. Very strange.. Thanks for chiming in.. :)

Weird

And I'm using the same computer, log in etc... And it's not just one item.. It's different things.. Once it was that scanner looking thing, then it was men's clothing.. I thought my account was hacked somehow.. I don't think it's a marketing ploy as the items I have on my recently viewed aren't high end or likeable items.. Again, I think it might be a gimmick for you to call EBAY so they can track you... Stealthers BEWARE!!! :)

What I looked at one one user account showed up as recently viewed on an entirely different user account and the exact same items.

I have no use for a japanese blow up doll....LOL :>

It showed that to me on 3 different accounts that dont even have adult listings enabled LOL

I didnt even start a history on a few accounts I started this morning.

Looking more and more like a glitch....I hope

Well my friend finally called me back some 10 minutes ago and explained it to me in full, I still don't understand what hell he said. He talked with his engineering thinking cap on.

I understood that ebay is trying to integrate some kind of advertising with the thing that people view, or direct advertising. He doesn't know why it would show in other accounts even when using other User Account in Window OS.

He also said he checked his buyers and sellers account and didn't see any issues with them.

so ironically, my viewed items have been actually what I have viewed in the past. Not sure if it was just a malfunction or glitch on ebay's end but things seem to be back to normal. I appreciate everyone's input on this as I'm happy it wasn't just me. You guys are awesome.. :thumb:
