eBay: No Longer Safe?

It looks as though Romanian computer hacker, Vladuz hacked into eBay servers early this morning and reportedly posted private information about 15 eBay accounts on a trust and safety message board.

Vladuz told people to watch CNN on March 15th, saying that he couldn't promise anything, but the mainstream media may be picking up on the recent fraud at eBay.

Meanwhile, daily fraud auctions associated with Vladuz have numbered in the tens of thousands, actually boosting eBay's poor traffic and auction numbers.

According to FireMeg.com, who has been watching the Vladuz developments closely, eBay members are becoming tired of eBay's double talk, cover ups and censorship.

Instead of accepting responsability, eBay is openly blaming Yahoo, Microsoft and it's users for the recent problems.

Here is a screenshot of the most recently hacked account:

So, after this event, we can draw the conclusion that eBay has never been safe.
