This is a mail I've sent to eBay today, please read and you'll

Gentlemen!
Enough is enough!
I don't know why but about every month I receive the same stupid
e-mail
from you, "...your eBay account may have recently become
compromised..."
bla bla bla and I can't access my account until I am not following the
same stupid routine of resetting my password!
I am a grown child, I use 10 firewalls and 30 anti-virus programs,
I am
not giving my passwords to others, etc, so PLEASE stop harassing
me with
this stupid procedure!
My account is very well thank you, I can't understand why I have to go
through the same, stupid process every 30 days or so!
Enough is enough!

Thanks!



Looks like you got yourself hooked to a phishing scheme. Ebay does not
send out that sort of message.



???
What's with you boys?!
I am more than 8 years with eBay and I know how to spot a phising
e-mail!
NO, NO, NO!
The message was genuine, it was also in my inbox in my eBay account!
ebay also answered my question and admited it was a gebuine message!
What te f***k, I am not new on eBay!



relax, buddy. don't let the chuckleheads raise your blood pressure.
nice to see you back...


:-)))
Thanks buddy but these guys at eBay are unbelievable!
They are answering my questions by sending me back their safety rules:-)
And here in rcc one poster made of me a...troll;-)

Anyway, as I said I *think* I have an answer for what's going on but I
am not sure if it's valid...
Sooo, do you think that eBay has a mechanism to monitor from which
country you are logging in to your account?...
And when they "see" that you are logging in from a country which:
1) is not the country you usually access your account
2) is in the list of the "dangerous" (hacker-infested) countries
(Russia, Bulgaria, Romanian, etc)
then they are automatically going through this procedure...

Because if this is the case then it might be because I live and work the
last 8 months in one of these countries so I am accessing my account
from there...
Is it possible?...
Just a thought...

Ebay recently announced a new security feature, whereby if you use a
different computer or isp to log into your account, they would ask for a
secondary verification question. I received that in an email from them,
but they never have asked me for that question or response, so I don't
know if they have started that policy yet or not.
