eBay email hacked

[Caitlin]

Hi
I just found a bunch of copies of spam emails someone used my eBay account to hack. eBay caught it and I had to change my password.

The origin was French eBay which I visited a week ago as a link to capn
'Rob's conch pearls. I didn't even sign in or ask a question or anything.........

Someone out there lurking and pow! I don't think it has anything to do with Cap'n Rob, but it makes me nervous to even check out eBay links now.

That's dismaying!

Maybe it would be better to give the item number rather than the link, when referring to an eBay item?
