Re: Urgent need to change password?

I am too scared to open any email from eBay. That's why I am here.

MyeBay, Account, personal information, password edit

 

 

To change your password. The international papers have articles where eBay says, do it.

 

database containing the information of over 120 million accounts was hacked.

 

 

 

IDs, passwords, names, addresses, emails

 

So yes, be careful of spoof emails too.

Given the seriousness of this wouldn't you have expected some official email and a great big warning when you first log in insisting you change your password ? Absolutely nothing.

Agree, totally...as the need was there to change, the message should have been there. Front page media, home page eBay, eBay messages and email. so they have fallen down on this one badly. We should not have had to find out from foreign press.
