I just now logged into ebay using my id. I went to list something and suddenly I was logged on as someone else I've never heard of before....had access to this seller's auctions and everything. This seller had really high feedback too. If I was a dishonest person....all the harm I could've just done.

I'm at home, alone, and no one else uses my computer. I've never had this happen before. This seller had over 500 fb.

That is weired, and a not so good security glitch.

I had heard of this happening once before on this board, and I believe it was a problem with eBay. Kinda scary huh?

I noticed today when I was using Mr Lister that my password was up on the address bar.

Have to be careful when sending links to someone that you aren't sending your password too!

It's not always like that but today it was.

Can you imagine that sellers surprise if you hadn't noticed and he wound up with a bunch of auctions he didn't know anything about! Excederin headache 787! You should probably let support know, just for the record.

Yes, let support know, they will solve the problem by cancelling your ID.

I've seen links on ebay that say "if your not username click here.

They must know this happens once in a while.
