Accidental Log In from suspended account
 

So I created a bidding account on ebay on public wifi and it was suspended same day for some reason, I think it was after I tried to add a phone number.

Stupid me didn't realize the device I used had chrome synced.

So anyway, several weeks later, I was on my real main account on .com and answered a question from a bidder. As Im in Canada, every time you click to answer a question , it automatically makes you log in to .ca to answer

Because of the sync, it filled in the name and pass of the sus account and I clicked without looking. I noticed before it went through the picture verification and stopped and deleted history and unsynced

Ebay sent the standard "new device log in", and instead of ignoring it as usual I changed password etc.

Am I screwed, and how long should I worry, if not , to see if Im in the clear?

This main account is 20 years old.

Does is matter or factor in that I never actually did anything with the account and that it was never verified?

A simple sign in from sharing cookies and IP is enough for a suspension… but aged accounts are more bulletproof.. only time will tell

Using a public wifi.... -_-

I'd say once is fine... just be careful next time.
