I am surprised that ebay has not tightened up on their seciurity network to prevent anyone from obtaining your personal ebay password. Could they develop a software that would automatically delete the cookies that house the password in your computer or form their website? I am sure something could be done, but then again it may cost ebay lots of money to invest in such a precaution. I would hate to see them dip into their millions of dollars in revenues and profits to help their fellow customers.

No, I  get them all the time, but being the naturally suspicious fellow that 
I  am, I have never fallen for one of them, and send them immediately to  
Spoof at ebay.com , so I can't imagine in this day and age of crooks,  thieves, 
and con artists on the internet, that anyone in their right mind  falls for 
that CRAP!! and wondered whether there was another way that  these hijackers 
were lifting peoples  passwords.

Bruce,  I had my eBay identity AND password hijacked recently and  someone 
used it to put a bunch of Mercedes, Jaguars and Rovers up on eBay for  sale by 
......me!  I still haven't figured out how they would benefit from  this.  But 
I was told by eBay that you don't even have to click on the  links given on 
the phishing site for them to find your password.  You just  have to OPEN a 
phishing email for them to gain that information.  I  certainly don't understand 

how they can do that.   I'm opening fewer  emails now!
