Somone may have hacked your ID and password. I had a problem with mine when I got an email telling me to update my info or else I'd lose my ID. Unfortunately, it was one of those fake emails where they record your keystrokes, and when I logged in to verify my info they stole my password. Something similar may have happened to you.
Any email from ebay should be forwared to spoof@ebay.com.
Any email from paypal should be forwarded to spoof@paypal.com.
spoof@msn.com
spoof@microsoft.com
I wouldn't be suprised if Jim didn't have spoof@fr.com
At any rate, ebay and paypal actively chase phishers and shut them down. I have had 2 phishing letters this week on my ebay account. Never opened them, just forwarded them.
Didn't fall for that. I don't believe my account was hacked. I think ebay has a software problem.
