Hi,

Iv'e had something similar a few times. A very officially 'ebay' looking message saying that there had been attempts to access my account from another computer and I should go to a link and verify my card details or my account would be disabled.

It didn't quite make sense as I have always accessed the account from more than one computer. Obviously I didn't do as asked and my account was never disabled.

I did however change my password again just in case!

had the same things a couple of times i change my password every four weeks now

I know it's an old thread but had another tonight about someone trying to access my ebay account. They wanted me to enter my details to access my account. Went in to Paypal no probs. The mail was from paypall.com....................notice the difference?!!!
