I went to eBay and they do have a customer statement out there stating that 
everyone should change thier passwords.  however after searching the site for 
15 minutes and not being able to figure out how to change my password I became 
frustrated and gave up. Perhaps tomorrow morning...

Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Security Breach at ebay

I have to admit that the email below looks suspicious. But I think the story is 
true. Like you, I would NEVER click on a link in an email to logon somewhere. 
But I did manually go to eBay and change my password this afternoon.

I found eBay's official statement by first going to eBay.com, then following a 
link there to their corporate site at eBayinc.com and found their statement. It 
says they are planning to notify its users about stolen personal information, 
but didn't say exactly when.

This looks suspiciously like a phishing attempt or something...I have no 
notification on my ebay account about any sort of breach of security. And I am 
always afraid to click a link in an email that warns of a breach!  Anyone else 
heard about this?? Ebay would notify its members, I'm sure.

WARNING - SECURITY BREACH! Earlier today, eBay announced that a cyber attack 
carried out three months ago has compromised customer data, and the company 
urged 145 million users of its online commerce platform to change their 
passwords in order to protect their personal information.

While they claim the files stolen did not contain financial information 
including credit and debit card numbers you can never be too safe so we 
strongly urge you to change your password as well if you use the site.

Furthermore, eBay stated it found no evidence of unauthorized access to 
financial information at its PayPal payments subsidiary, which encrypts and 
stores its data separately.

These security breaches and cyber attacks seem to be happening more and more 
and it's important that you are aware of each one so as to protect yourself and 
your personal information if you use any and all affected sites and services.
