When I tried to check Ebay this evening it told me my login information was incorrect. I tried using the "I forgot my password" feature and it told me that neither my email address nor my user id (olerud363) were registered with Ebay. I'm trying to contact their customer service, but it seems you can't unless you're logged in to your account. I can't find a general inquiries email address.

My first fear is that my account has been compromised. Anyone ever have this happen? What would cause this?

I don't know what would cause it but I would change paypal passwords immediately if you had them linked. You can create a new account then contact the ebay CS shortly after and explain the situation.

Just tried to login again and now everything seems fine. I still changed my ebay and PayPal passwords just in case. I don't see anything on ebay.ca about intermittent outages due to maintenance like ebay.com had yesterday. Weird.
