Called me this afternoon from an Adelaide phone number saying my eBay account has been compromised, from using a Gift voucher. (Which I just got a $5 off voucher from eBay last night that I then used on a purchase, for local tea). They guy sounded Indian & would not give me any information except that the purchase of $299.00 of the Gift voucher looks suspicious in my eBay account & they are stopping it. And all he can tell me is that it came from Shanghai, & done through my Debit card. I asked which card & what is the last 4 digit of.. he said he can't give out that information. I was about to give him my email address to get proof of this fraudulent activity but I started asking him questions instead. He said I must've been looking up youtube music videos online & the hackers have got in that way. I said no I have not so that's not true, so how did they get my information? He just kept saying there is a hacker & over talking me & couldn't provide me with any proof. I said we are just going around in circles & I don't know what is actually really going on here.. then he hung up on me. Was quite rude.ha Beware.

There are many similar scams at the moment. Unfortunately, there are people who still fall for them, so they keep trying. 😞

I think you should have hung up on him first.
