Gin, I am very sorry to hear of your troubles with ebay. I also am concerned about some goings on. About every other day I get fraudulent emails to verify my ebay account or some such nonsense. These emails look like they are really from ebay, have the logo, email address and all. I have never responded to any and forward them on as I am supposed to, to ebay's spoof email address. I get the usual form letter back, saying they'll investigate, don't ever respond to these, etc. However, I wonder how many people have fallen for this and been taken for a ride financially, identity theft. etc. It's very deceiving and nervewracking to deal with. Maybe a lot of people get these and are used to it. I don't like it and think they should be able to stop it. I once considered ebaying full time but am too leary of the whole thing. I hope things work out for you. Good Luck.
