Subj: Important - eBay  Password Reset Required



Important - eBay Password Reset  Required                 

IMPORTANT: PASSWORD UPDATE 

Dear eBay Member, 

To help ensure customers' trust and security on  eBay, I am asking all eBay 
users to change their passwords. 

Here's why: 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. 

What I ask of you:
Go to eBay and change  your password. Changing your password may be 
inconvenient. I  realize that. We are doing everything we can to protect your 
data  
and changing your password is an extra precautionary step, in  addition to 
the other security measures we have in place. 

If you have only visited eBay as a guest user, we  do not have a password 
on file. 

If you used the same eBay password on any other  site, I encourage you to 
change your password on those sites too.  And if you are a PayPal user, 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. 

Here are other steps we are taking:  
    *   As always, we have strong protections in place for both  buyers and 
sellers in the event of any unauthorized activity on  your account.  
    *   We are applying additional security to protect our  customers.  
    *   We are working with law enforcement and leading security  experts 
to aggressively investigate the matter. 


Here's what we know: This attack occurred between  late February and early 
March and resulted in unauthorized access  to a database of eBay users that 
includes customers' name,  encrypted password, email address, physical 
address, phone number  and date of birth. 

However, the file did not contain financial  information. And, after 
conducting extensive testing and analysis  of our systems, we have no evidence 
that any customer financial or  credit card information was involved. We also 
have no indication  of a significant spike in fraudulent activity on our 
site. 

We apologize for any inconvenience or concern that  this situation may 
cause you. As a global marketplace, nothing is  more important to eBay than the 
security and trust of our  customers. We know our customers have high 
expectations of us, and  we are committed to ensuring a safe and secure online 
experience  for you on any connected device.
