I understand that does not solve your current situation, but is a suggestion going forward. Shit will get hacked, fact. And we can’t rely solely on vendors to protect us. It’s crucial that we take the steps necessary to protect ourselves - hard passwords, dual authentication, etc. I had to learn that the hard way. Most times that’s how we learn. Good luck
What is this dual authentication you speak of, sound great. I had my PayPal hacked a few years ago. Luckily we only keep a few grand in it and did get it back.

I have two dual authentication accounts one being with Social Security which I don't use yet but am prepared. You log in with your password and it sends you via text to a linked cellphone number a onetime passcode. You then enter that into the account.. Easy and works good for me..

Yes, ebay has it. Literally, every website that deals in financial transactions should have it; if they dont, dont use them. Usually you need to go to security or user options, etc. Worst case, just search for it in the site's search bar. There are several ways/choices, but I prefer a text to my cell number. Thus, unless someone hacks my cell (which is very possible, but less likely), only I can log into things via the second authentication.

Ben, I am a technology moron, and I can figure it out, so I have faith in you!
