what bothers me is

 

In a statement, the auction site said that a database was compromised between late February and early March.

 

but they have only seen fit to tell us now

not had a thing from ebay, noticed it in my Facebook feed

 

It was all over my FB feed, when I logged in to ebay it was on one of the main page news articles.

 

it's not there now. nor any mention to change password anywhere on the main page.

 

Since then though I havent been able to sign in, and see my "Interests/Followed Searches Feed" (items I search for alot all in one feed on the main page.)

Which is annoying as I usually log in, check that feed for any specific items and then log off.

The original article was removed for whoever knows what reason, perhaps it gave would be novices the description of how to attack a network, and how effective it was.

 

It sounds similar to the eBay report your link. Very concerning for private data.

I have changed my paypal as a precaution as well

 

I did them both too, funny thing is that PayPal required everything to be reset, including email addresses etc. Now it's sending me emails like it's a brand new account. Weird.

That one was just a bit more than a "hacker" going on a vandalism bender though

 

heard or seen nothing down here with regard to Ebay.
