Believe it or not, eBay originated the contact with me. I didn't save their notice but it was to the effect that activity that appeared to be unauthorized was occurring on my account. I was completely unaware of the identity theft -- although I wouldn't have been for very long because when I visited "My eBay" I'd have seen the "Items I'm Selling" and, since I wasn't selling anything at all, I would have realized that something nefarious was afoot. Anyway, I did as they suggested: changed my password and made it much more complex in the process. There was a special verification process I had to undergo to make the change effective. I also went to eBay France and killed those two Dell Inspiron auctions that were under my ID.

Got a heckuva scare, but no permanent damage.
