apparently, just clicking on the link, not even putting my CC information in.. made me vulnerable.
my account was hacked that night, and was just able to get in today after a 30 min chat and phone call session with ebay..
what a mess

i had the same problem the other day... My account was compromised and they changed my password and everything so I had to start all over.... but I did not type my CC informaion or anything like that I just X'ed out of the page not thinking about it and I got a e-mail a few days later saying my account had been compromised and I needed to reset my password..

There'* no security lock in the lower right hand corner either.
What number did you call to get in touch with an eBay rep? I find that the MOST challenging thing about using eBay....email and live chat aren't always a viable option.

i waited 12 min in live chat for a rep... we chatted about it, and then he needed to confirm something over the phone, so he called from 1-866-317-3229
however, you cant get anywhere from that number... you must do everything online

Your account didn't get hacked. Your information got stolen. That website uploaded a trojan or a keylogger of some sort onto your computer most likely...
I suppose I can't say that is exactly what happened, but that has been my experience with the method. Even if you don't enter any information, they still pull passwords, etc with that ****.
