eBay hackage

If there was something in the auctions that led buyers to send money to some other address, I can see this working. These guys probably sniff e-bay traffic 24/7 looking for passwords and set up hundreds, if not thousands, of these auctions.

If somebody had your password, couldn't he redirect your e-bay correspondence to his own e-mail account?
 
Someone did just that to my ebay account--they bid on an item under my username, won the auction, and even used my paypal to pay for the item, and I never knew, received no emails, etc. ...until I received my checking statement. Now, Paypal is looking into it, I can't get into Ebay, and some guy in Puerto Rico has $103 of my money. I'm just glad he was happy with $103--seems like alot of effort for such a small pay off. Thank goodness for dumb criminals.
