No, I just found a bunch of questions on it in my e-mail inbox. It was just listed yesterday, I ended it and e-mailed Ebay about it. The guy was trying to get people to contact him through a different e-mail addy & not throgh the "Ask Seller a Question" link.

I don't know how e-bay works, but why would he want to use your account? Was he going to try and scam whoever bidded on it?

Well you need to take it a step farther.
If you have Payapl---change passwords. Let them know what is up.
Change password on your E-bay account.
Watch any accounts that can be linked to your e-bay\PP accounts, like checking or whatever.
Notify your bank anyways.
The more you do now the better off you are.
Lock down anything you can asap---this crap gets to you real fast---faster than you can keep up with it.
Also if at all possible on any PC you have clear out the history and all your cookies. In addition do this every time you do any financial transaction on your PC and clean out the trash bin also.
I know---I am a victim of identity theft.

change all your passwords for everything. That just happened to me a few weeks ago.
