Newbie Quest | Auction Sniper

OK guys, as a newbie I guess this question has been asked before, sorry.

I am a little concerned about giving out my E-bay Username and Password.

Can someone put my mind to rest that giving these details will be secure?

to the forum !

I will try.

AS has thousands and thousands of customers, and I've NEVER seen a complaint of credit card number or password falling into the wrong hands.

You gave eBay your credit card number didn't you?
Same thing here. AS needs your password to be able to log in and bid for you. That's the only thing they use it for.

Hi and WELCOME....
Please be assured that they have thousands of us here and we are totally pleased with the security and the entire service. That is why on this forum we use odd names and not our ebay idents. You could not tell who we are. And. even when we do, it does not include the passwords. Please relax and enjoy the service this site provides. Read the Help topics, expecially the BID GROUPS. And please join in the forms here. WELCOME AND GOOD SNIPING

I've never had a problem, nor have I heard of anyone having a problem. And many of us have given AS our credit card numbers for billing.
