Could this link?
 

So last night I'm chilling out, take a look at my emails to see purchase confirmed on my stealth eb.ay. I freak out a little, "holy crap I've been hacked! good job I have no money in those accs right now...."

On closer inspection, "I know that post to address...."

So last time I visited my parents I used my mums tablet, - on incognito mode - to log in and reply to someone. At least that's what I thought I did.

Mother dearest has somehow gotten into my stealth, purchased a few items, changed my default postal address to hers and used her pay.pal to pay for it.

God knows why she didn't think to check why it had my old address as the default ship to. FML

Anyway, the account seems ok at the moment but could this be something that might link the acc to my main one? I've never been banned from eb.ay but I imagine since the pay.pal my mum used and the postal address is the same as I used to use on my original eb.ay... or is it too far a stretch to worry about?

The two accounts will now be linked.

Chances are nothing will happen until one of the two gets suspended. When that happens the other one is likely to follow at the same time.

Well bugger

fingers crossed everything stays ok, there's always a back up if not.
