Yesterday morning, I had a rude awakening! I opened my AOL email account, only to find an email stating that I had changed my eBay password and email contact. I couldn't log into my eBay account. My PayPal account is tied to eBay, so I automatically thought the worst had happened.
I found my way into eBay support, and found out that the new email contact for my account was from Russia! I called the eBay phone number, and found out that someone had changed my info early yesterday morning. It wasn't me!! So, they reset my account back to my email contact.
I then had to change my password for eBay, PayPal, and my AOL email accounts.
The customer service guy I talked to for eBay was super nice, and got the job done, very quickly. He checked to make sure no transactions had been done on eBay and PayPal. Good thing I opened my email early yesterday! He also advised me to change my passwords, frequently, and don't use the same password for multiple sites. I can do that, but I hafta write them down, lest I forget them!!LOL

A bit later, I had trouble logging on to OSM! Probably not related to the eBay thing, but aggravating, nonetheless!! Beware, folks, the hackers are out there!!!

The internet is a wonderful thing, but unfortunately very evil at times too.
