To protect the Community against this type of fraud, beginning today, eBay will start noting which computers members typically use to conduct their buying and selling activity. Now more than ever, having a current Secret Password on file with eBay is vital to the safety of the Community and to your business.

Sincerely,
John Canfield
Senior Director, eBay Trust & Safety
