Seller Contributions to Charity Hacked?

I just wanted to bring a problem to seller's attention to check and make sure your designated Charity hasn't been changed without your knowledge.  I donate to St. Judes Children's Research Hospital and all the listings I had designated there were changed to American Lebanese Syrian Charities.  I tried all day to shout from the ceiling regarding how this could be a fraudulent attempt to steal charitable funds and reroute them.  Unsure when they hit our paypal donation fund where they are actually going.  I can't get an answer on that.  I've had to go into each listing manually and either delete the listing and start over with another charity or change.  I might be the tip of the iceberg and it might be happening to thousands of us.  Check your charitable donations preferences and see if at the bottom of your choice, if it isn't referencing something else...if so un"heart" your choice and please join me in alerting Ebay we have been hacked.  Changing 160 listings is a big job.  If you have thousands...my goodness.  It has been going on for several months and I just caught it!!!

This one confused me, as well. I don't think the name change was a good one. People know about St. Jude's. Most don't know ALSAC. I feel like I may have to explain it in my descriptions.

I think I would, even though it's a pain.
