You wouldn't think it was so amusing if it was your account.
Joe, I have no idea. That's scary. How could they have gotten your password?

Jedi Marksman...why don't you go in a damn bush and wait for someone to come by so you can use your "sniper senses" to find the elussive enemy in the wilderness. Don't breathe too hard or you're spot will be given away. Must wait for the trigger....then BOOM, one shot one kill. You are too obsessed with damn sniping as a proffession in a PC game.

Well I first noticed by looking at my Paypal account. I saw that 5 bucks was being taken out of my bank account and being put into paypal, which I never do (I never leave paypal cash hanging around! biggrin: )
So, I questioned that. Last night, I got a PM from that Spooge911 guy. I never answer IM's on AIM unless the person says who they are, due to the crashing software and all that crap, so I ignored him.
Then today, I get emailed that I won an Ebay acution for 1 digital photo of a Henry Ventil. (Some guy in college, flexing his fatass) for $0.01. hake:
Now, the reason I was jumpy was if someone was able to bid on stuff like that, they can bid on anything, you know? So I changed both Ebay & Paypal passwords, hopefully that will put an end to it.

Let them know that someone has hacked your account. They should be able to block any transactions until you have cleared this up. They might even be able to trace the transaction for you.
