Steve Haynie Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 I got the following message this morning with the subject "Ebay Account Suspended."---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<IMG SRC=http://pics.ebaystatic.com/aw/pics/navbar/eBayLogoTM.gif><BR><BR>Hello,<BR><BR>Wehere at ebay are working 24 hours a day to keep you protected from identity theft.<BR>Ithas come to our attention that you have been trying to log into your account using<BR>multiple IP addresses.

If you look up www.wkywesley.org you will see a web site for church-going youth. However, the phony eBay information page is on the site. Some of the links on that page point to the real eBay pages.I did a whois on the www.wkywesley.org site and got the following information:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Domain ID:D78522639-LRORDomain Name:WKYWESLEY.ORGCreated On:11-Oct-2001 19:14:52 UTCLast Updated On:07-Jan-2005 19:00:06 UTCExpiration Date:11-Oct-2005 19:14:52 UTCSponsoring Registrar:Go Daddy Software, Inc.

Dry Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 I hope they caught him. I hope they give him 30 days. 30 days on the Scrotum Hanger. It should be televised.
