do you see the padlock symbol in your browser when you logon ??

ebay login is secure, but if they substitute the ebay.com page for one of their own ( and that's always possible on a network you don't know), then you could have been logging on to a spoof ebay, and you could have given them your authentication details ...


there is also the second option, and this is the most likely scenario : perhaps your ebay account was not compromised at all, and you just got a fake mail to trigger you into clicking a link in the mail to change the password... and that link then lured you to a spoof website...and instead of changing , you just gave your original one to the hackers,

i've seen the latter on several occasions with amazon...
