I just clicked on the link to "MY EBAY" & ended-up in someone else's account!!

EVERYTHING was available to me!!

I quickly SIGNED-OUT & SIGNED-IN & I'm back into MY account!

Nobody here but ME & Ralphie -- and he refuses to give up his Commodore 64 &, thusly, never plays on my SONY!

I, too, never SIGN-OUT from eBay -- when I wake-up each am, I just click on the shortcut from my desktop to MY EBAY.

I did that this AM & everyting was a-OK, hunkey-dorry!

BUT, when I returned to MY EBAY after surfing for awhile, MY EBAY was NO LONGER MINE, but somebody elses! I was sooooo shocked, I didn't write the name down -- it was something+KENNEDY+a number!

The 6 auctions listed sure weren't MINE! I could have entered his ACCOUNTS & everything!!!!!

I immediately logged out of eBay & logged back in & MY MY EBAY re-appeared!

THIS is a VERY SCAREY SECURITY GLITCH

that went for $1,000.

That is very strange - even when I've been in my ebay, then searched around ebay for awhile and go back into my ebay I have to re-enter my password. Very Scary...

I wouldn't freak out. probably just a glitch on ebay's end that shouldn't have happened.
