| Exactly, fairly old trick (not that you were supposed to know) by hackers/knobheads, originally used in hotmail accounts. Theyd send you an email which directed you to a page that 'looked' like hotmails login screen, saying you had been kicked out and please input your details again to log back in. Of course, the page was actually on their server, and once you logged in they had your details and could open your account.
Same thing with ebay, as antonye said, never open links to anything requiring a secure login. Its worth the effort to type it directly into your browser.
Sorry to hear about that jobr, hopefully they can sort it out without doing you for anything, and get ya mail back in working order (although that shouldnt be effected by ebay, unless your using a corresponding account by them) |
