Change Your eBay Password Now
eBay is asking all users to change their passwords because of a cyberattack.
It says that the attack compromised passwords and other nonfinancial data. Cyberattackers reportedly used employee credentials to gain unauthorized access to eBay's corporate network and a database that contained customers' names, encrypted passwords, email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, and dates of birth.
The database did not contain financial information or other confidential personal information, and was compromised between late February and early March. eBay first detected the compromised employee log-in credentials two weeks ago. The company says that it has seen no evidence of unauthorized activity on eBay but that users should still change their passwords.
