Joe, What's the exact address from which the email was sent? Can you send my privately a copy of the email, including all headers? Maybe I can find out something for you.

I hadn't slept well the night before and was pretty tired. > > Immediately I changed passwords at eBay, Paypal, and my ISP. In fact I have changed them twice. I removed all cards and bank information from Paypal. There is a card that eBay won't let me remove, but it has expired. > > Today I received what appears to be a legitimate Paypal message. I am baffled by it. I am not a seller, and don't even know what "updating service for auction listings" might be. > > "Dear Joseph Tainter, > > "You are signed up for PayPal's daily updating service for auction listings with > PayPal logos for eBay. > > "During our last update, your eBay User ID, **JT***, and password were denied as > invalid by eBay. Therefore, your listings were not updated with PayPal logos." > > As I say, the message does seem to have come from Paypal. > > Did the thieves somehow manage to get into my Paypal account despite the fact that I changed the password twice? > > Appreciate any advice. I have written to Paypal, but expect no help there. > > Thanks, > > Joe > >
