What happened on eBay last night? No access to my seller pages.

At about 9:00 pm (Atlantic Time) last night, I logged in to eBay.ca check some listings and when I clicked on "My eBay/Selling" got directed to page that said "This page is not available" (or words to that effect).  I couldn't get into the discussion boards either. 

 

I then noticed the URL -- very odd -- it started with something along the lines of: "my.ca.paradise....".  What on earth was that?  

 

I immediately logged off, but when I tried to log back on, nothing but the "not available" screen, and a similar URL with "paradise" in it.  I tried the same sequences of steps on both Google and IE, with the same results.  I didn't try .com, but I see some posts on another, older thread that something odd was going on there too. 

 

Two days ago I mentioned at the Wednesday Board Hour that I'd been seeing the sign-in page flipping back and forth (two different designs at different times).  Raphael didn't seem very interested, and seemed to suggest the problem was something I was doing wrong.  Really??? 

 

Are we being hacked (again)?  Did anyone else notice this last night?  Considering the attack on the Canadian government computers yesterday, I wouldn't be surprised.  

 

Another intrusion is all we need now to finish off eBay for good.  Woman Sad

No, I didn't get that message at all, which is why I was surprised.  Yet the feeble excuse-making does sound authentically like eBay.  Woman LOL

I agree.

I'll let you know if I get a credit.

I didn't receive it. I don't know if their mail program is able to be that specific but perhaps only sellers with the affected listings received the email.
