Gary,
I am not sure if this is related or not, but several weeks ago e-bay and pay-pal had a problem with a hacker sending out emails to e-bay and pay-pal customers asking them to renew their account information. This was a fraudulent attempt at getting customer information to use for fraud. It cam out in a news story here in Connecticut and as luck would have it, I saw the news footage prior to actually getting one of those emails so I just deleted it. As always be very careful of anyone asking for information. FYI, I believe the news station was WFSB ( [url=http://www.wfsb.com:efbf7]www.wfsb.com[/url:efbf7] ) maybe you can look through their archives for further info.
Eric.
