ebay

I know this was brought up once before but thought I would do it again. If you have an ebay account you should periodically check your account for third party authorizations. It looks to me that those give someone access to your account. I just checked mine and there were two names listed that were no one I know of.

Go into your "my ebay" page and click on "preferences" on the left side. Go down to "third party authorizations" and click "show". If there are any they will be displayed here and you can revoke them. The names on mine were spammers, I never give anyone permission to use my account...

Just a little FYI in case you weren't aware of this......

Excellent reminder. I just checked and nothing to revoke. My account was hacked into this past April.

Ever since this was posted before I've checked mine periodically. I've only had to remove something twice. Good thinking on posting this up again

How about a sticky in the AAG section?

Just checked for the first time and things look good.

I had a "sly" one under the alias of "Ebay"..

It had been there since May 07. I haven't bought anything off eBay in months, but what exactly can they do or could they have done?
