Got two questions in my email this evening. Logged onto Ebay and I've got two items for sale I'm livid. Ended the listings and emailed ebay but I've got £12 of listing fees against my account.
Anyone had this happen? Are Ebay any good at sorting it out?
grrrrrrr......

Sorry never happens to me but you may have spyware on your machine - they've got your password somehow.

"never happened" but hope it never happens either!

Be very careful, they could also bid in your name. Why not close your account and then reopen a new one, is that possible?

Changed password and am probably going to close account or at the very least, change my user account. I'm really concerned that it's happened. DH says - it's happening all the time.

About a month ago we DH showed our neighbours how to use ebay and it saved his username and password, so they were using our account to bid for items. He informed ebay and the bids which hadn't closed and everyone was fine about it, although one vendor wanted fees, dh sent them an email explaining what had happened and it was dropped.

Hope everything gets sorted out for you xx
