As we announced yesterday, we are asking all eBay users to change their passwords to help ensure the trust and security of all eBay customers.
Recently, our company discovered a cyberattack on our corporate information network. This attack compromised a database containing eBay user passwords.
What’s important for you to know: We have no evidence that your financial information was accessed or compromised. And your password was encrypted.
If you are a PayPal user, note we have no evidence that this attack affected your PayPal account or any PayPal financial information, which is encrypted and stored on a separate secure network.
We understand that changing your password may be inconvenient. We are doing everything we can to protect your data. In addition to the security measures we have in place, we are asking you to change your password as a precautionary step.
If you have more than one eBay account, you should change the password for each account. If you used the same password on any other site, we encourage you to change in on those sites too.
For details on how to change your password on various devices, please refer to this link.
