There was some rumbling on some non-major news-sites earlier this week about a possible EBAY Hack but this just went full-stream.
Change your passwords now. EBay customers must reset passwords after major hack - May. 21, 2014 EBay Asks Customers to Change Passwords After Database Hacked - NBC News EBay has asked customers to change their passwords after a database was targeted by hackers, according to a statement released on Wednesday. The database contained encrypted passwords and was compromised in late February into March. While the database did contain customer information including phone numbers, birth dates, and email addresses, it did not include financial information, the company said. “Cyberattackers compromised a small number of employee log-in credentials, allowing unauthorized access to eBay’s corporate network,” the company said in a statement. EBay has seen “no evidence of any unauthorized access to financial or credit card information, which is stored separately in encrypted formats.” EBay users will be contacted by the company on Wednesday asking them to change their passwords. PayPal released a statement saying that an investigation has not uncovered any evidence that information for its customers was hacked. “PayPal customer and financial data is encrypted and stored separately, and PayPal never shares financial information with merchants, including eBay,” PayPal said.

I'd be more worried about them getting my Name, address and phone number and them setting up credit cards etc. I'm sure that's what they're after.

I'm going to change my Paypal password too. I know they say they weren't affected but I'm not going to take a chance.
