You are missing the point entirely. eBay is NOT like a bank, eBay have a
VERY POOR record on data security. Giving them this info is NOT like
giving it to a bank, I suggest you google ebay data security issues
before you go getting all high and might...
My bank has never data security issues, they are regulated much more and
more rigourously run than eBay. They are not the same at all and given
eBays data security track record I’d caution anyone giving them info
which can be used for identity theft....
