If this is true i would have thought Ebay would have sent all members a message,
I don't know of anyone that has been notified.
Bit strange.

They would want to notify the public without causing a lot of fear. Could you imagine the money they would lose. If everyone were afraid of people hacking into their bank accounts. They have to cover their butts. Without losing their fortunes.
