Ebay Hacked, User Info Posted 242

Posted by CmdrTaco from the hate-when-that-happens dept.
An anonymous reader writes "This morning a hacker posted the personal contact information and credit card data of 1,200 ebay users on the eBay.com Trust & Saftey forums. eBay pulled the Trust & Safety forums off line, but not before one user made a video of the hacked forums and posted it on youtube.com. eBay response is on the eBay chatter page, and seems to try and down play this "fraudster"'s activity."

      While what you said makes sense, it's really a cold comfort when you consider the personal information at risk. The hacker could have posted it in the forums just to cause chaos or for a hundred other reasons. If it was merely used as a warning that eBay's security is lacking, they could have done it through an e-mail to the administrators or to a reputable news site.

        Anyone who's ever submitted such "well-intended" reports, sometimes they get a "thank you" and the problems get fixed, but more often there is resistance and hostility. Now this is pure speculation, devil's advocate if you will, but what if the hacker had already tried to contact eBay and was rebuffed, or perhaps he (or his client) was the victim of fraud as a result of eBay's poor security and this was retaliation.

        Sometimes, when someone doesn't listen to your kind advice, you have to make them listen.

      Ebay claims in TFA that the information was incorrect. In short, it's just a fraud, a scam, an attempt to get Ebay tech support and its customers riled up.
      • What if the posts are real and really from those accounts, but the guy changed the credit card info to shield the users a bit. The personal information is bad, but valid credit card numbers would be worse. The guy claims over on YouTube that he just wants to wake eBay up, and that he's not out specifically to hurt the users.

        All that said, if this guy's just a phisher, it's nothing about eBay's security to blame here. It's the stupid phish that took the bait.

        I have no incontrovertible proof that it came from eBay, but the credit card that I have on file for eBay was compromised two weeks ago. There were several unauthorized online charges on my account. When it happened I had no way of knowing where the info leaked from. But now, two weeks later, I find out that all of my eBay user account information is available on the internet?!?

Someone that tries to steal your identity and possibly get caught and go to prison and/or pay fines, or someone that posts your personal identifying information on a hugely public site so hundreds maybe thousands of people can take and use that information. I would guess that the information got out in the hacker community quickly and they all made copies of that information.

      This kind of behaviour is reprehensible. If you wanted to let EBay know they have a security problem, tell them, anonomously if you must, but posting other peoples indentifying information is like shooting an automatic weapon into a crowd of innocent people. I think along with fines, restrictions and imprisonment, spanking should be added to the list of punishments for this type of behavior.

        Strictly speaking, in an ideal world, you'd copy the list to Ebay, and they would *immediately* block all accounts on the list, contact all affected customers telling them their credit-card data plus contact information has been compromised, that they should change their credit-card number at once, that they would be willing to speak to their credit-card company to explain what happened and absorb any fees the credit-card company charges to issue a new card, help them to create new Ebay logins, and report the breach of their security to the CERT and the FBI. And we all trust Ebay to do all of that on their own initiative, right?

        Given that Ebay's response is along the lines of "It's a hoax, our security is fine, don't worry" I really wonder if keeping things like this under wraps is enough to keep companies like Ebay honest. I'm not optimistic since any admissions on their part cost them money, dent their public image, may cost them customers, and could make them easier to sue in case accounts are abused (either before or after the data becomes public).

        Of course it's irresponsible to publish this sort of information (credit-card numbers, contact details) on the web. And yes ... perhaps there should be an independent authority (e.g. the police, the FBI) where you can go with your information and be certain that action will be taken instead of making it accessible to the world and his dog.

        In the absence of a clear-cut authority to report to I'm still not quite convinced that the "shock-and-awe" effect of bluntly putting the data on the web isn't needed to prod Ebay into action to take measures.

      At least in the case of Monster.com, the only thing taken was the stuff you could have gotten off anyone's resume. Sure, that can help a phishing scam, but it isn't the end of the world. This is far far bigger. Having credit card numbers stolen is a very big deal. If those 1200 posted were all that was stolen, then this will just be a minor inconvenience. E-bay will contact everyone and get those numbers promptly canceled. If on the other hand the 1200 posted numbers were just a display and proof that the hack had happened and that there were more stolen, then there is a very serious problem.

      Even as it stands, unless E-bay can show beyond a shadow of a doubt that only those posted were the ones stolen, anyone credit card number that e-bay has should be held as suspect for potentially having been stolen. Ebay has really dropped the ball. It will be interesting to see how they scramble to deal with this.

    Perhaps a tad off topic, but a great tip nonetheless: check out the "virtual credit cards" you can get nowadays, they're excellent for protecting yourself from all kinds of online problems. The card works much like a disposable e-mail address; you create a virtual card with a unique card number that only exists for a very limited time and that has a defined (read: small) limit. You use that one-time card number to pay for the product you want and dispose of the card afterwards (or rather: forget all about the card afterwards). If someone hacks eBay and finds your number they'll never be able to get any money from it since the card is expired - and even if it's NOT expired, the credit (or rather debit) limit is maxed out.

    I got mine for free from my bank and have used it for lots of online purchases - it's fucking awsome.

It would seem like getting a disposable card would hurt you in all three areas.

          No. I officially have 1 "Card". When I want another card I login to Citicards.com and go to the VAN (Virtual Account Number). They have a Flash online version or a 'local' version for XP. You then get a credit card number is defaulted to expire the next month. Even if it's the last day of the month (it's designed to be used immediately). The numbers can only be used once and you can additionally set up a limit on how much money the card is limited to and in how long it should expire. I usually just accept the defaults with reputable businesses. If the website looks a bit shady, I can limit the useage to Cost + $1.

          Everything is tied to your main account, but if 'they' get the temp number, it's useless. It doesn't count towards having a new line of credit, maxing out your card (unless you max out your Account) or how long you've had the card. I think in the last year I've made 100+ of them. Used for everything for bills (Who in their right mind would send valid credit card information though the mail, then they have *everything*) To online orders.

    Trust & Safety forums issue this morning

    Some of our readers may have learned of an issue that occurred early this morning on one of our discussion forums. I've been talking with our Account Security and Legal teams, and I'd like to share some more details about this incident.

    Very early this morning, a malicious fraudster posted on the Trust & Safety forum on eBay.com posing as approximately 1,200 eBay users. The fraudster made these posts in a way that was intended to appear as though he logged in with their accounts. The posts contained name and contact information, which appears to be valid, and could have been secured as part of an account take over.

    The posts ALSO appeared to contain credit card information -- however, these credit cards are not associated with financial information on file for these users at eBay or PayPal. We're in the process of reaching out by phone to these members to, so that if the information is valid somehow -- regardless how this fraudster acquired the information -- these members can take the steps they need to take to protect themselves.

    eBay and our forums vendor, LiveWorld, began taking steps to remedy the situation within an hour after it started.
