Reply to "Potential Problem Sniping for Account with "Weak" eBay Passwords"

Hi Rick,

Well...if one can use the "Import Wizard" or "Verify" links with a positive response, it is certainly less likely that he/she will be impacted by this issue. However, eBay appears to have only added this additional security step to a portion of their sign-in servers, so it's not a definitive indicator.

If you are concerned that your eBay password may be "weak" and therefore you may be affected this problem, I certainly recommend updating it to something stronger. After all, for security purposes, it is much better to require a strong password to access your account than a weak one.

For additional information on how to choose a secure password, and how to test the strength of your password, I recommend checking out the following links:

1) eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/help/confidence/password-secure.html
2) Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/protect/yourself/password/checker.mspx
