Default eBay - Identity Theft

Hey guys just wanted to give all of you a heads-up. Someone on eBay has stolen my identity. They are going under the user name mikol0024. They are using my name, address, and password - Watch Yourselves! He has already robbed someone on eBay of $4,000.00 and now I am going to have to deal with this crap.

Contacted eBay and got my name cleared with them. They reactivated my account. The person that was using my account was trying to sell trailers, boats and stuff. I looked at my Account Status & Invoices. The person jacked up the Insertion Fees like crazy. The fees were between 20-100 bucks. I was like WTF! Good thing I canceled my credit cards.

As far as I know yes. Try and change your passwords often, so this won't happen to you.
