I don't know how long this has been going on but, lately I've seen it almost every night. Nekkid pics of women or deformed carcasses...weird crud. They get you to click in with these pics and you aren't taken to the listing. NO! You are instead taken to a sign in page. It looks just like the eBay sign in so you think you need to re-sign in. This is a spoof sign in page that enables the thief to steal your whole account! Now they can take your account and sell IN YOUR NAME to unsuspecting buyers who they will also scam.
If you do accidently fall for it...get your butt to your profile quick and change your password! Otherwise this thief will change it for you and you will have lost the account. I have been trying so hard to get eBay to keep a better watch out for this but get the same answer every time. "We don't have the resources to catch it every time." So, I sit there and try to get them as they come up but I'm usually on hold for about 20 mins before I can even bring it up with Safe Harbor. Then it takes them 10 more mins afterward to take it down. How many people get hi-jacked in this 30 mins? I don't know. How sad. Ok, sorry so long. But needed to get it out.:stare:
