Getting notifications that belong to someone else

Just woke up to 20+ notifications that belong to someone else. These notifications are asking me to pay for items I've never seen before, and I'm getting spammed by seller offers also for items I've never seen before.

Getting notifications that belong to someone else

Go to your ebay account and see if the transactions are there. If they aren't showing on your account, then the emails are spam and you can ignore. 

 

If the purchases are showing in your account on ebay, you were hacked and should contact ebay:

Any one else in your house or location??

This may be cause for this. As stated check and see what your purchase history shows as well as click on the eBay link to its front page and see what shows as recent views.
