I understood this to mean that "you" discovered that your ID had been pirated. This goes back aways from an old post, so maybe I'm wrong.

Q: Why am I stuck on this?
A: I can't come up with any reason why ebay would "initiate" a user changing their password. I understand the email exception, and can understand a password being the same as the id. In Steve's situation, if ebay made the initial contact, then that would be a reason. If ebay was responding to Steve, then I'm still at a lost as to an example where ebay would request a user to change their password.

I guess I'm looking for some rule like: "ebay will never ask you to change your ID on their initiative - period" (except when it's an email address).
