Has anyone else noticed this? Now spoofs say my e bay account names,,,,AND they arrive through my E mail addesses...strange? Now I ask, HOW can spoofers connect E bay id's and EMAIL addresses? I thought e bay solved that with us having to terminate our e mail address Id's? ya know, [email protected] we're just floppy. I thought it was to PROTECT the "Community" from spoofers? hahahaha. It was to figure out a WAY to kill, off e bay sales and it appears it NEVER worked and spoofers are attacking at an alarming rate,,,,,,Could it be an INSIDE job at e bay? employees selling our e mail addresses attached to out ID's...? How else would they know Joe$h# e bay Id. has an email address of [email protected]? Strange...???

Everyone has their price, even Ebay employees. AOL fired 2 employees for selling confidential information to spammers. It's entirely possible someone on the inside at Ebay is on the take. The spamming and phishing is a mere inconvenience to sellers. Wait till they transfer the culprit over to Paypal where he has access to all those juicy credit card numbers and banking info, as well as names and addresses. He'll be rich in no time.

I would never even consider Changing my e mail addresses,,,,,They were not just whimsical thoughts,,,,Days to THINK of JUST the RIGHT Name.
I would NEVER open that TRASH.
An insider on e bay is filtering this information out. Has to be.
any others have any ideas?
