You hit a link that goes to a login screen, and pre-populates the screen with stored data (e.g. cookies) from your own machine if the form field name matches one that is stored on your computer. However, you would not have that other person's login password; it most likely put in one of yours. Had you tried to log in, I seriously doubt it would have worked. You might retracing your steps just for yucks; see if you can provoke it into doing that again.

Just 2 wks ago, I had my credit card on file compromised, that card was used for pay pal and E bay no where else ever. Could this of happened to maybe someone else and they got my log in and password?
No. What you might want to check for is a keylogger virus on your own machine that you might have picked up someplace, and that would transfer your keystrokes (especially for logins) to a bad actor elsewhere.
