Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

There were low-key reports just after it happened.

Mostly got ignored.

Re: Breaking News!!!
 

Man I don't really feel like changing about a dozen passwords, then I have to change like 2 files and another large file with info sheet on it. Blah.... I guess I'll get to it.

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

All they can do is buy with an ebay acct with no paypal with just a credit card. I don't know the procedure but ebay may ask for the 3 digits on back. Even so almost all ebay's accts have paypals so they have to get the paypal email and password to do financial loss.
All of that is half hidden inside ebay half typed in...
It may be a marketing trick to get every buyer to visit ebay...maybe buy something to test the password!! HA!

eBay Data Breach -- The 'Inexcusable' Impact on 233 Million Customers (EBAY)

This said this is the 2nd largest data breach in US history. Maybe this will tarnish ebays rep just enough that some other viable alternative can get a fighting chance

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

IMO, there are other things to be concerned about..

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

What really pisses me off is that EB didn't even email it's 233 million customers! WOW GOOD JOB EB!

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

What do you guys think about the person trying to flog off the database dump for 1.453 Bitcoin?

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

What about all those people who attached a bank card to there actual ebay account for reimbursement fee's ?

Worth thinking about...

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

Why are they all $5 notes...? Not ballin' enough for hundreds?

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

Hundreds cause too much attention....$5 bills don't!

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

Well that was 2 hours worth of work. Thanks EB!

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

After having received a few mail asking to change my password on my account (actually mine are accounts but Ebay do not know ;-))

Now is a must!!

As soon as I log in I am forced to change it. Via mail, phone or... don't remember.

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

I was so proud of my older account passwords, lowercase and no numbers...all gone.

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

It email, text, or phone on record with ebay.

I just do the email thing.

Re: WARNING for ALL users
 

90% of my accounts are sleeper accounts. No one would be interested in them. :lol:

Re: WARNING for ALL users

Re: WARNING for ALL users

Re: WARNING for ALL users
