That's what I mean Elaine - they include a link in the email saying 'click here to change your passwords etc' and you do, which gives them the information they need to access your accound.

They look like they are from ebay but they aren't. If you go to the ebay site there is a load of information about it.

I didnt get a link to change my passwords, infact I cannt get onto ebay at all now. I have closed my paypal account and deleted all my info from there before doing so. Will open a new one when I need to.

That's good Elaine and was quite quick too.

I know, I am well chuffed. The info I have is of use use to a hacker unless they are a cat fanatic but its mine.
Alot of computer buffs told me that I'd never hear from Microsoft about it but I did, so am sticking my tongue out to them
