Im sorry ladies i just have to say this i feel like absolute shit! somone found out my details again on ebay and $2000 has been spent in a few hours! i cannot believe this i have no money for food or anything, how on earth am i gonna get through this, how can people destroy someones life like this! i am gonna have to sell everything i have! i have such bad luck, sorry im gonna go cry now

oh my god, so sorry for you...was this on paypal? sorry not sure how it works, have only used a few times. any credit card fraud protection?

erm... ebay will be able to tell. this is fraud and if ebay won't do anything go to the police.

you won't have to sell anything!

Holy moly maddysmom how did this happen?
Have they hacked your paypal too?, are you able to retract bids - inform ebay striaght away and the police as this is serious stuff....

maddy cant you contact ebay and get the police in
sorry to hear this

someone did this to me and i reported it to ebay and they sorted it all out.

seriously you have nothing to worry about! contact ebay AND the police asap

any news yet??

i cancelled my credit card, am getting a new bank account, its hard as the account is american, so i have to contact the american police, which is hard with the time difference! This happened about this time last year too, it took us 9 months to pay it all back, i didnt think it could happen again! Im going to contact ebay tomorrow morning, and temporarily cancel my ebay account like i did last year! the worse was that i have 12 people still needing paying, as there ended up being no funds to pay them, but 4 of them have contacted me to tell me they are prepared to wait so there are some sweet people out there! thankyou for your advise ladies i really do appreciate it alot!

Why do you have to pay it all back when it is your card being fraudulently used?? I don't understand.

Don't be daft. You don't have to pay anything! Contact your credit card company and the police (not the American police, the police here) and Ebay. You didn't buy anything, you don't have to pay anything. If anyone contacts you tell them that this is fraud and that you have put it in the hands of Ebay.

I also assume they are just using your card, not your actual Ebay account. If they are using your Ebay account, how did they get your password?

ok, i will contact uk police and ebay today! Somehow they got my paypal details from my ebay account, i dont know how, but then i get about 5 spoof emails a week now! and i did accidently click into one! but i changedmy password and username straight away!The worse is that my ebay is saying i have bought over 200 things in a month! I receive about 10-20 parcels a day now, and i dont recognise half of them, half are coming to me and half arnt! silly stuff like vouchers, dvd's and o-3 month baby clothes, my daughter is nearly 1! i will let you know what is going on ladies thankyou for listening and helping me, you have cheered me up!

any news yet? as an ebay user I really hope you get the help you need from them...what about the police?
