    This might not be the right place, sorry if it's not.

    I think my ebay account has been hacked, and they seem to have somehow gotten access to my gmail account too??

    I got a weird response to a "want it now" item I put up and ebay, saying i think I have what you want, but when I clicked on the item number it said it had been deleted by ebay. I just deleted the message and thought nothing more of it.

    Today I come home, open my gmail and all my emails have been deleted, bar about 8 new mails, Delivery Staus failed notices, of emails I have never sent?

    Again I deleted them all striaght away.

    Now I can't sign in to my ebay account??

    What should I do?

    I'm currently in the que for live help on ebay.

    Change your Gmail password immediately for a start. Did you use the same password for your Gmail as Ebay?
