    I was browsing on Ebay and noticed a '70 Boss 429 with a 'buy it now' price of $2400. Naturally, I took a look. The page appeared for 2 seconds then the Ebay sign in page popped up. Didn't think too much about it and entered my info. The Boss 429 had been removed by Ebay. Kinda weird, I thought. Then I was browsing the H.A.M.B. board and found this..............

    Not good! I immediately went back to Ebay and changed my password. I had someone break into my account before and he was selling non-existent Suzuki quad motorcycles using my user name and feedback! Took awhile to straightne that out! Everyone, be aware!!!

    NEVER EVER REINTER YOU PASSWORD! AND NEVER EVER ENTER THROUGH A EMAIL LINK EVEN IF IT APPEARS TO BE FROM EBAY>

    Ditto for PAYPAL

    Several scams!
