All right...hopefully found a solution here and I'm keeping my fingers crossed it doesn't get worse!
Just got off the phone with Ebay personnel....she quite literally could not tell me what is or was going on, just told me that was because everything was or is proprietary. But from the gist of it and reading between the lines best as I could, it seems that someone did attempt to hack in to my account, and somehow or another they did the same with my wife's account, but Ebay programs detected whoever or whatever it was and they immediately put restrictions on both of our accounts, lowering selling limits, which in turn triggered what I could do which was quite literally nothing until I called Ebay and made sure they knew this has nothing to do with me.
The odd thing was I was asked several times if I knew anyone from certain area's of the US and I did not but it appeared as though the track they were on was that someone I knew or know had some certain access that they should not have been able to have. But that's not even remotely possible because I won't even write down my own passwords for fear someone might take advantage, even though no one could possibly access that info.
So I was told to change all our passwords, truthfully, that makes me even more nervous because going back 20 years in the early days of Ebay, I did have my id stolen by someone who had planted a keystroke virus on my computer. I swear I don't know how the world functions on and with computers. I keep updated virus software and I'd suggest everyone else do the same. I'm going to go run a scan now! It's constantly running in the background but it'll make me feel better!
Thank you for your help dollybeauty!
