So i'v been a member for about 5 months only buying though. and i decide to sell some stuff. So I list my tuff for 3 days. 2 days later i'v been susspended. they say that I have been linked to a suspended account and the only way to get back on is to log onto the susspended account and resolve it. BUT I HAVE NEVER EVER EVER HEARD OF THAT ACCOUNT it't NOT ME!!!! i told them this and they basically called me a lier. also they took money off me for listing. but they suspended me before i sold them. how is that right? i checked out the account that is suposedely me and that person was a member 2 years before i owned a computer or had ever heard of ebay. Is their some legal action i can take? has this happened to anyone else? should i contact watchdog or something?

thanks everyone., it's NOT a fake email it happened a few weeks ago (although they only took money from me today) I really have been mistaken for someone els and suspended. one of you said that i can contact them by phone. please can you tell me how because i can't find a contact number at all.

they did the same to me, i came up with the conclusion its a con, you can never talk to anyone in person or if anyone knows of a way you can talk to someone please let me know

i remember getting an email from somewhere claiming to be Ebay saying my account had been suspended and i had never even been on that site let alone become a member. i copy and pasted it to Ebay saying it was going around. sound like maybe something similar has happened to you. Dont reply to these but copy one and send it to Ebay and tell them to sort it out. hopefully thats whats happened and it wasnt actually Ebay taking your money. if it was then i guess keep trying Ebay and maybe contacting Watchdog isnt a bad idea, or even a solicitor if you have one.

Believe it or not you can actually call ebay and talk to a real person. I had a similar problem that i tried to resolve every way possible ,but did not get the suspensio lifted until i called them.

if your identity has been hijacked or duplicated, you are in a tough spot.unfortunately computers have taken over the world, on any net transaction make sure you are proctected with a strong password- not something easy like a birthday etc.

if they took money from your credit card talk to your credit card company and explain
they should send you a dispute paper for you to fill it and explain in writing also sending all info and copy of whatever you have.
But call first good luck

I would probably check that I hadn't been a victim of identity fraud which is rife in Britain, if all other said explanations are eliminated,........................................................................ Seek Expert Advise....................
