World’s biggest E-commerce company with 128 million active users announced yesterday evening in a press release that it had been Hacked. eBay revealed that attackers compromised customers’ database including emails, physical addresses, encrypted passwords and dates of birth, in a hacking attack between late February and early March, but financial information like credit card numbers, as well as PayPal information were stored separately and were not compromised.
eBay customers are now potentially vulnerable to phishing attacks i.e. spoofed e-mails. Hackers or spammers could craft very convincing phishing emails which may appear legitimate at first glance, but could trick you into revealing further personal information.
To change your eBay password, log into your account, select Account Settings, then click “Personal Information”, then “edit” next to your password. If you are using same login details for other websites, you should also update them as soon as possible.
