Hi There,
I am a powerseller who needs the 800 phone number for Ebay. It appears my account has been taken over.

Thank You Ray so much for taking the time to help me by posting this info. I have read and heard so much about this happening but I never thought it would happen to me. I have been selling since 1999 and am very cautious with my Emails and who I communicate with. It is a mystery to me. I run full system scans every week and keep my system updated in every possible way.

You are most welcome. I had my account hijacked about a year ago and I KNOW I did not click a link that could have sent someone my password. Ebay denies they have security problems but I do not believe them.
Hope you get everything straightened out soon. It can be such a pain to have to change everything. Be sure to reset your passwords on your banking accounts as well. No need to take a chance that someone may have access to them.
