Hi all
In the past few weeks I have been getting warnings in both my email and notice via eBay which reads 'We noticed a new sign-in on your account. Change your passwords etc'. The approx. locations were anywhere in Sydney, The Rocks and Narara. All within NSW. Has anyone been getting the same warnings? I have changed my password 3-4 times now but every time I log back into eBay the same 'warning' reappears. My understanding is if someone has hacked into my eBay account they could get into my a/c at anytime, but it is always when I have logged in. There has been no extra transaction into my a/c. Should I just ignore it or should should I press the panic button? Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Apparently if your browser clears cache/cookies after each session that will happen, also if you use a VPN it can happen.
I use WIN 10 with Firefox/Chrome with mobile broadband and don't clear cache/cookies every time I shut down the computer, so I don't get the constant sign-in notifications.

I had 22 of those notifications over a week or so at one stage. Each notification was me.
I would contact eBay via live chat and see if they can help you out.
it was just annoying that I had a notification each time I logged in.
I contacted live chat and it has been quiet since.
