Paypal and eBay security question....

Somebody hacked my ebay account and changed my info. Bought an Iphone as well (with prompt payment and I got pos feedback ). I was able to get it resolved, but it looks like they linked my Paypal account to eBay as well. I keep no money in paypal, but I'm worried about them getting to my bank accounts. After logging into Paypal, it said I was randomly selected to verify my account info. Several times over a two day period, so how random is it? I didn't do it and wondered if anybody else has run into this? I'm concerned it might be the *****stick who hacked my account.

Any advise on how to proceed? I can't finish logging in to ask Paypal questions without answering the verification questions...

BTW, if anybody lives near:

6720 S Lois Ave # 2203
Tampa FL 33616
United States

Feel free to kick this *****ers a$$ for me.

That's an Apartment complex called the gardens at South Bay.

Why not call the Apartment managers? And the Police...

Geez, this post showed up at least 37 minutes after I posted it. When I didn't see it, I went and posted another one which showed up right away.

I wonder what happened to this one?

EDIT. Maybe they can be combined?

I've heard countless stories of people having trouble with paypal/ebay. Usually there is a waiting period and email verification before paypal passwords/info are changed. Paypal will never ask you to verify your account info and if "they" do you can usually look in the address bar and see that its a variation of a paypal site. I.e. www.co.paypal.com has happened to me a few times but I caught it like you. I wouldn't be too worried about your bank accounts as long as your paypal is secure now with a new password.
